Cooties
A response to something my friend said. I think it's barely a poem, but it's just what came out no editingMy defenses are never up
My heart an open book
Love is just something i want to risk
You say you remember
You know the pain after the love
You stop the love rather than let it flow
Just so you don't feel the pain
I want the pain
I crave the pain
I need it to live
To tell me I'm alive
I feel the love from beginning to end
I feel it when it makes my heart float
When I walk around humming
And thinking of only him
I feel it when my heart crashes
I feel it when it sears my soul
I feel it when I can't bear it anymore
Until I don't
That's when I stop life
When I go numb
I feel like I should cry
Like I should laugh
So I do.
But that's not me.
Inside my mouth is a line.
No emotion
I hate that
I have to feel
So first, I have to love
Then I have to hurt
I want to feel the euphoria of love
To float and dance inside
Even if i hurt in the end
It's worth it
Let the love in
