Praying Mantis

 
I see you trying so hard
But baby I’m scared
You wipe my tears
You lend your ears
We’re living two worlds apart
I’m frm Venus and you’re frm Mars
I’m not ready
My nerves are not steady
I want to
I want you
But my heart said forget it
I see how patient you are
Trying to help me move on
But you see hurt ppl hurt ppl
I’m a walking hurricane
I will dismantle your heart to heal my pain
I will chew you up and spit you out
I will break your heart and fill you with doubt
Maybe in the next lifetime
Maybe then I can call you mine
Until then please keep your distance
Because right now my heart is serving a life sentence .
