I wear my heart on my scarred and tethered sleeve
I rest my heart under my favorite shirt
The one I bought for a day out
That never panned out
I dangle my heart over a juxtaposition of what was once you and me
Clearly
I'm qualified to handle my issues
Alone
Behold all the moments I cried out for help and not one soul listened
I debated suicude
Along side my mothers guidance
I buried my heart under all those back & forth arguments
Steming from voids we shall not cement in truth
Her and I are better now
I dabble in silence towards backtalk and a slick tongue
Sometimes her volume still demands too much from my teetering patience
But ****** I love her
Like I loved them
Fragrance
A gift today
A scent long forgotten
A heart beat tranquilizer
That's what love foretold
When you lose someone
You wonder
What it'll take to reel them back in
To foresee a journey
Another one entails fashionable corruption
Mind boggling desecration
I lost to who
I lost two
I lost too many times
Only when you've lost everyone, you gain yourself
A carousel fairytale ride
Each roundabout
Noticing loss of smiling faces to each child
That's my life to this point summed up entirely
Each yearly roundabout
You're becoming farther out of my reach
I preach to the masses you become farther without the first "r" for me
I'm ready to wear my heart revamped and revealed
For everyone to caress and undress
Peeling away my surrender
I rest my heart on yours
Going at it alone
It's not unnessacary
Just unwanted
Not ideal
