Changes happen quickly That’s what happens when you have a fickle heart Oh to be human Oh to feel – But wait, aren’t those the same?
A complete paradigm shift Like an earthquake of the mind Leaves wreckage in scattered memories, Beautiful trinkets lost in the rubble of broken homes.
What a metaphor for the heart!
Can you dare to believe that someone will heal you? How could you put that weight on someone’s shoulders? Your pain is yours to bear Despite sweetened words and rosy promises.
You can’t fix anyone from the inside out either. Eyes only see the surface, Only see the façade, unintentional or otherwise. Truth does not exist for you to see.
Truth. What is truth in love? Is there truth in love? Or is love a woven contradiction of hopes and fears, Bent on the naïve wishes of teenage girls longing to be adored by boys with bright blue eyes and midnight hair?
Does the heart have a shape? Curves and straight edges? I think it’s a gooey blob that drips across the barroom floor And if you’re not careful to clean up the mess you leave behind You leave yourself behind.
Funny how that works. Ironic perhaps, but definitely cynical.
And if you don’t clean up like your mother always told you to, Then it’s really your fault if you ask me. Shouldn’t you know better by now? After years of hearing what’s good for you and what isn’t Why do you still have to be so stupidly stubborn?
You’re wrong, just face it. Your heart is a useless lump that pumps hot red blasts through your body That splashes pink across your face and lips And catch his eye.
But don’t say I never told you, no don’t you dare say I never told you That this silly little love story would end, That it wasn’t even a love story to begin with. Hell, it wasn’t even a story - Just a ****** poem written in a lost-in-the-rubble diary that’s falling apart.
