why does hurt stay
longer than love,
ever does?
i say love is hyped
more than hurt
people warn us about
the pain that comes
along with love
but why not about the scars?
liars! i find solace in
the pain, it wraps
me around and covers me,
protecting me like a shield.
romanticizing by a say
you can only hurt a heart
as long as it loves you.
