It must hurt you

The fact that I'm writing about other people

The fact that you can see my heart ripped apart

But all you've ever wanted to do was to love me from the start.

But I cannot let you.

I will hurt you.

I will hurt you a thousand times

just like they've hurt me.

I won't allow you into the carnage of my heart.

I care about you far too much.

My focus will re-adjust

but until then

Don't let me be the reason to break your heart.
