Poem

Ah next time I see meaningful stuff I'll just paste them here. Will credit the author anyway.

The moment
I exposed
My wounds to you,
You pushed them away
In a hurry

Vulnerability was such
An ugly color on me to you
The murkiest shade of blue

I watched the sun rise
Before my eyes,
Catch fire to all that we desired
And quickly be consumed
In the fumes

Not knowing that love too,
Could suffocate me

This once vibrant
Entanglement
Found itself fading
To gray the minute
You walked away

Now you're the moon
That chills my bones
And I am still drawn
Into you like waves

A longing for you
That I cannot quite explain
You follow me wherever I go
