I never wanted to hurt you


Can you tell me why the ocean returns to the shore day in and day out?

Yes because your mind can understand the curves and the angles in which we breathe

But what you cannot tell me is why we walk away

Fear is an anxiety multiplying on the nerves of my heartstrings

Bleeding has become easier to me then breathing alone, because for once I cannot tell you why

I cannot put into words the process of thoughts that made using you an okay idea

That carried the power to turn you into something you had no idea you had become

A safety blanket stretch from the tip of my nose to the tip of my toes, you kept me warm

Covering every inch of my naked body, you kept me safe

Knowing every curve and fear I had as I fell asleep at night, when all you wanted was a chance

Being loved is not the same as loving

And so I just left you there, feeling stripped of right to feel that you where good enough

You are more then good enough

And I have lost my right to tell you that
