If I wrote you 1000 words
Would you read them?
When I told you I was
Scared
Did you listen?

When I whispered that I
Loved you through jaded
Glances, did you hear
Me?

Tragic and broken
Beaten and scarred
I gave you what
Mattered

I told you my tragedies.
I wrote them down so you
Could remember what I'll
Never say aloud.

So you can love me;
I'm buried beneath my
Vacant whispers and
Jaded stares.

Can you see me?

I gave myself to you and you
Promised I was safe there.
I don't remember what that
Feels like.

When you left me there
So completely at your mercy
I cried. Cathartic and weak.
I gave you what was left of me.

I don't hear you.
