No matter how many times- You write your blood in each poem- The feelings that sat uncomfortably- Never come closer to releasing you- I was a monster; I held daggers so close to protect myself- Though I used it on love itself- Made promises I couldn’t keep- Especially when my head was in the noose- But I can’t fight that- It was something I know, I never want- Love won’t find any room- If all you got is hurt- Just look around- You are not happy, but you are- The reasons you got where you at- The space between your feet- Isn’t the perfect place, but its home- If letting go means forgetting- If feeling numb is taking you there- If tears help you bare the reality- Little steps push you further- From your cradled despair- Next time, when you have it- You know what not to do- You know what to look for- You know all the mistakes from both sides- Set you up to just soar-Birth sign: Libra
