How does one love others
Love nature
Mourn for those no longer here
Cry for those are  hurt
Feel pain
Emotion
On such a level
With a somber expression and welcoming arms
I embrace you
Lay your head on my shoulders
Transfer your pain
Your misfortune
Your hurt onto me.
For I will take it on
Leaving you with a blank face
& piece of mind.
I welcome pain
I welcome hurt
Place your burden onto me
For I will heal your pain
End your suffering.
For I harbor no true feelings
Mine are not my own they are foreign
Placed onto me by those near and far
Let me be your solace for i deserve no such thing
I cannot love myself but I can love you
Taking on what you cannot
It’s okay to let go.
For I am hear to save you
Yet I can’t even save myself.

We weren’t together long
In that time you shown me
Compassion
Trust
Acceptance
You’ve given me more
In a short period of time
Then I would’ve learned in a
Lifetime.
You will always be my first love.

Like a moth to a Flame
Your words entice me
Thoughts excite me
I fall victim to things you say
Like a snake with a quick tongue
Smooth and soft
Like honey
Im burned.

Before i even realize
Whats happening
There i lay
Empty
A shell of myself
Broken
You took what was mine
With no intention of fixing
Like a robber in the night
You invaded my home
And took was most important
Other that heart
My most prized possession.
