Razors Didn't Do This To Me, You Did
I want to say something to you.
I want to say something you have been running away from.
I want to tell you things you don't want to hear,
simply for the reason that you are afraid,
that you just wouldn't understand.
Afraid of the truth.
These words will be the words
that take the form of a needle,
small and insignificant,
but deceptively painful.
A needle that will cause incredible
pain, but hasn't the ability to kill you.
I love you.
You, who I would
slit the throats of babies for.
For you I would massacre millions.
No woman, man, or child
would be safe,
if that were all it
took for
you
to
love
me
back.
Your indifference to my
devotion to you
cuts me like no razor
ever could.
the classic struggle
of a love-struck fool,
desperately grasping.
Yet the thing he
desires most is the one thing
he cannot have.
the Fates are indeed cruel
and bitter.
To deny me you,
nothing is worst.
I,
who simply would like
to hold you close
for the sake of
holding you at all.
To share a moment
with you,
simply to be close...
Nothing in the world
I want more.
