Just So
October 18, 2011
I question my heart
People view me as naive
I see it purely as friendship
Giving my everything
Just to be friends
My caring nature
Beginning to eat away at my soul
Make it stop!
Deep breathes relieve my heart
Gasping crisp air
Slowly releasing the pain
I’m done with all the aches
With all the hurt,
The judgment,
And the power.
My feet planted
Ready for my start
With a brass plate guarding my heart
I will become,
Become strong again
Fighting this battle
One step at a time
