One Sided
It hurts to love you
Causes pain in my chest
A stabbing in my stomach
Sometimes a crook in my neck
I can say it verbally
But you’re deaf
Selectively listening
Why do I even waste my breath
I can write it down on paper
Bleeding ink through the pen
The blind act is just pretend
To you I’m a liar
A villain of mass destruction
Setting wild fires
The pins and needles
The numbing in my heart
I think I need a cardiac jumpstart
