You steal my heart
You hold it in a cage
I can sometimes see it
Just a flicker
And then I can think you’ll give it to me
It’s mine
I need it
How can I live without a heart?
I think you’ll give it to me
But you don’t
Because you like to see me suffer
Begging for breath
And you know I can only breathe when I’m in your arms
You know it
So you push me away
And then someday
I will wither and die
Will you cry?
Will you hold me in your arms
And beg for death to release me from its claws?
I wouldn’t know
And not knowing hurts
So much that I think I might die a double death
