Don't be A mole. I hate moles. They burrow And Scavenge And Live in the Dark. Thats just What you did To my heart. You burrowed Deep, Down to the center. You set up camp. And I didn't know You were a mole. I thought maybe you were A Straw, To **** Bad things Out. So I kept you warm And waited calmly for the Bad stuff to Dissapear. But I realized That You were a Magnifying glass, To emphasise My flaws And you were A Seam-ripper To Pull the patches From where I had already healed, To make the scabs Bleed Again. And I thought you were A Jigsaw And you were broken So I could fix you And put you Together. Like a Vase, Easily B r o k e n. And Then You left me. Like a Tooth Full of Cav it ies. That Space Next To My heart No longer full. And you Didn't depend on me, No longer a tapeworm. I miss you. Like You Were Mine. But you were Never Mine.
