When I said
I wanted to fall in love
I did not mean
I wanted to bleed

I was About 15 extremely naive
Love seemed like a big word to me
Said time and Time again
I did not know that  word would make me spend my summer nights drinking *****
In my closet at 3 in the morning.

Now I'm about 16 wondering why I dream of that word
Why do I wish to fall in love
Even after I know last time I Almost died
It won't be metaphorically speaking when someone says "she died of a broken heart"
I will be gone...and the reason is love.
I am literally dying of a broken heart but you don't seem to give many *****.
