You are the Poem
I've tried to write my whole life
the words on the tip of my tongue
that I'm too cowardly to say
You are the promise I was given
when I learned of love
And I burned the pages instead
of protecting them
So now I play games to convince myself that you.
Don't. Care. You. Do. Not. Care.
Else I'll regret the flames forever
And try to write it again
