Undateable / I'm sorry
Undateable
You can come closer, but never near enough to hear my heartbeat
Undateable
You can see me smile, but never see anyone (not even you), in it
Undateable
You can hear me laugh, but never hear anyone's (not even yours) voice in it
Undateable
You can hold my hand, but never find my fingerprints in yours
Undateable
You can give me warm embraces, but never understand why my body's so cold
Undateable
You can shower me with all your love, but never enough for me to do the same
--
I'm sorry
Some time ago
Heart leaking with sorrow I left puddles of my own blood wherever I went
When predators smell blood they hunt
They hunt and they want to conquer
They want the empty vessel to build a home inside it for themselves
They call it falling in love
I took only the good things they have given me and filled up the empty spaces, and then I drift away like the seeds of dandelions dancing in the wind
Selfish maybe but I'm not stupid
I only want to be free
I know what they want
But that is for me for now, and no one else
Because men are so beautiful
But this heart
Is so fragile
