My life is not your little garden of flowers to pick and Pluck parts of me from. Love Me, Love Me Not, Love Me, Love Me Not, Love Me, Love Me Not, Love Me. I can't Smile happily as I watch you approach with your greedy hands Empty once more. How am I supposed to Smile while you Peel away my layers of Good Intentions. It gets old Waiting on a Maybe And thats the only word that Tastes Good To You You Breathe Fires of "Perhaps" You ***** Potentials and Possibilities You Craft Nooses of Love and Affection Why is it that you begin writing love letters And Create Spears Crafted with Loving Hands? Why is it that your words are Purple With Poison? They are thrown out and Spatter Like Blood. Leaving your own crime scene of Confused Tears That Beg for More Behind You. Why?! Just Tell Me What Broke Inside of you that you feel like Your Sticky Games Hold You Together Why is your stomach always Hungry when I offer you the Food off of my Plate What is Fading the Color from your Eye?   That Grey is not Indigenous to the Eyes that I Memorized and Learned. How has your picture faded? Why can't I just Paint them back The Way They Were ? Maybe, Only Because God Didn't Give Me The Right Colors Why Then, Do I Spend Day and Night Mixing and Remixing To Find the Perfect Shade of your Joy Maybe you just aren't My Masterpiece To Create & You Will Never Be Finished While the Brush is Still In My Hand Maybe All Along it has been My Hand that Held the Knife that Scarred Me... Maybe Not You After All Oh Maybe Maybe Maybe How I Hate its Non-Commital Nature.

It ***** Knowing it's over.
