its mellow dramatic but i like it
its longer than this







my limbs grow heavy
with apathy
i try to move boulders
with words
they slip out
from my trembling
lips
& shatter as they
loudly crash
to the ground
i cringe at my failure
you're deaf to hear
the scream that escaped from the
shards of my pleading
you are oblivious to them
yet, they are scattered
at your feet
i silently question
your blindness
does it come from
choice?
do you believe me
to be emotionless?
you wish to provoke a
reaction
you see me as cold
distant
yet you ask for my love
you crave it
you seek deeper into
watery shadows
wanting what is
so elusive
it dances in front
of you
teasing
if only i could simply give it to you
fear claims me
she holds tight
tight to my throat
restricting my confessions
of emotions
preventing them to
cascade
into
the open
fear keeps me
under her wing
sheltering me from
your expression
she feeds me the bitter memories
of my painful innocence
convincing me to
never again allow
myself to endure
the stinging of sincerity
someone's dark mark
on my memory
