Love

I get scared sometimes thinking about all the ten-hundred ways I could harm you with just a string of words and a bat of these eyelashes. I don’t think you know what all I am capable of, but you just keep pressing “I love you”s onto the ends of all my sharp parts.. trying to dull them down. I could have very easily said no to you and you only would’ve thought I had the best of intentions

Don’t tell me that I don’t understand what pain is. Don’t think that I haven’t hurt before. Don’t think I haven’t hurt so much all I could do was cry.. to the point where I didn’t wanna live anymore. Don’t think that my heart hasn’t been broken and shattered into a million pieces, because it has. I’ve sat motionless not knowing what to do with my life, just because I lost you. Just because I felt so empty without you. Just because I didn’t want to let you go and have to face life without your hand in mine. Don’t tell me I didn’t hurt when you broke my world. Don’t tell me that you hurt the same way I did, because you didn’t. You didn’t even come close
