Was I Naive To Think That I Could Be Loved?
Would the world feel different if I were to let go?
Would the shells of our bodies be able to smile a little more?
Would you, the soulmate I have yet met, know to feel a gaping hole in your heart?
Would you, the memories that will not cease to plague me, finally learn to end?
In the world that is a playground,
In this life that is the sandbox,
would you have enough humanity to handle my heart with a fraction of care?
-I once thought, long ago, that I deserved more than this.
