I am not ready yet
Not for the pain
Not even the gain
I am not ready yet
To open my chest and try to offer what’s left
Or for the theft that always happens next
It’s not of my heart
Just probably what’s left of my spark
I am not ready yet
Not ready for the drain
Not ready to be tame
I am not ready yet
But it’s always so lonely
Out here with me only
No warm embrace
To numb the taste
Of the poisons you left
