Suicidal HeartA Poem by Karleem JohnsonOur love was once so strong, now it falters, poisoned by your fears and assumptions, by what you think COULD happen and what you're scared MIGHT happen. Something once so strong and pure, so bold and mighty has been broken, twisted, and now is sits in it's corner, quiet and demure. I give you my all and still you think that there is more, that I'm my body and attention to some w***e, my heart aches from fighting this repetitive war. Loving you so much, but you do not feel it, you cannot feel it, it is blocked by your paranoia, stopped by your distrust, and so it sits, in it's corner full of dust, showing the worn signs of rust. I want to pull you close and hold you tight, but you will just think that these arms have held another previous nights, i cannot kiss the pain away when you are the one making it stay, you are the one slicing your heart to pieces with that razor blade of hate. So there is nothing that i can do my love, no way for me to help, i simply sit here with tears in my eyes and my head in my hands, trying to figure you out, only you can stop this, but you don't know how, so we will just exist here, trying to live in the here and now. © 2014 Karleem Johnson |
