love refund

self explanatory

Why do I love you?

Why do I let you taunt me with your synthetic sympathies?

Cloaked in random hypocrisies

Of your empty ‘I love you’ tease

 

I am hydrangea

And you drain my nectar

Uproot me

Drag me

Curse me for being tattered

 

I am tired

Running never felt so bad

Staying never hurt so good

I escape in my symphonic dreams

Droning out the trumpeting of your trilling lips

Your endless lists

Of why I'm not good enough

Drumming out the beating of my draining heart

Panic never felt so rich

Pain never paid so poor

I grope my soul to find my worth

I deposited too little in my own savings

To make a withdrawal

But I've still got time on this earth

So I search

For a penny here and a nickel there

And recalculate my time here

Adding up these years �"

I demand to be reimbursed

For each hour I was not duly paid

For the overtime that heartache stayed

For the pain and suffering check delayed

I charge you for every cent

That you spent

Of mine

You once were,

But are no longer worth my time

Yes, rewind

And pay me back each dime

 

I am sunflower

I open only for Him
