you said you did,
do you love me?
maybe love's
too strong a word
but i know that
you at least like me
because you said
that you did and
you said more too
you said so much
more and you kept
talking and talking
and spilling your
heart to me and it
was pure and raw
like honey from
overworked bees,
exhausted from
trying to decipher
the complex interworkings
of a mind confused,
it was raw and sharp like
an old dull knife that
i didn't know was
stuck in my heart and
your words twisted and
twisted and the dull
ache spread through me
and i knew that i
needed to forget you
and i needed to run
from you but you'd
already caught me
and now i was trapped
because you'd caught
me trying to catch you
and now our fates
were intertwined but
you wouldn't say what
it is that you wanted,
what it is that you
needed from me,
you tried, i know you
tried, and it's hard
and it's scary but
i'm a person too.
it's hard and scary
for me too.
please say you
love me or please
say you don't.
just tell me.
