Take, take, take
While I give, give, give
I can’t keep up
Nor can I please
So I cry down mountains
I plead through canyons
Places that were once Heaven
Darkened because of you
Or because of me?
I can never tell
I look back at journal entries
My words do not lie
So why do I question?
I cry more than I laugh
I take what is and is not served
I know what Im doing I say
Your expenses paid by a graduate students credit card
A forgotten Happy Birthday
But it’s okay I say
Until its not
The glass I shattered
Symbolic of more
Your words are the shards cutting my soul
I thought I was strong
My body turns to a shield
You will not hurt Her
I know your hands will not touch me
But you don’t need them to scare
So we run into the night
Into the moon
A reflection of the light.
