The heart fractured

Folder: 
Love

Bite the hand that feeds you

Kick the dog begging for scraps

Returning only to be

Thrown out in the cold

 

The foundations crumble

The heart fractured

Begging for scraps

But there is nothing to feed the hunger

You have nothing left to give

 

Just to be held close

Entwined in your arms

Rejected

Scored

Just to be seen

To see light in your eyes

 

The world is on fire

I want to return

To the beautiful in me

Not the ugliness you see

 

Why must I beg

I am sick inside

As I see your expression

As I move close

 

I am not demon

Nor am I monster

I am starving

I thirst

I breathe

 

If only there were bruises

Evidence of the pain

If only there was blood

To wash it away

 

Demands made

Promises given

I am unable to be your reverie

Unable to give

When I feel so untouched

Undesired

Unloved

 

I am trapped inside my flesh

Hating my vary nature

As your pierce me with your nails

By the repulsion in your eyes

 

I am not disgusting

I am beauty

Can you not see it

I know you can not feel me

You will never let me close

 

Bound to you

Out of desire

Out of obligation

Hiding my pain with devotion

Staying when my heart screams run

Because I feel you deserve love

After being so hurt and beaten

Abused

Unwanted

So you may feel the beauty of being chosen

 

I am prisoner

I know you can not rescue me

You are my captor

My enslaver

My lover
