the verge
Locations
I’m on the verge of setting free
of all the pretty things left inside me
does that scare you?
I’m on the brink of an exploitation
a coming out
a celebration
does that scare you?
once I freely expose
the talk of the town beneath these clothes-
the whispers under my skin
my world from within.
will that scare you?
i’ll turn it all out-
both legs covered in doubt.
one arm coated in fears
the other drenched in tears
I know that’ll scare you.
my lips will read “hate”
my heart, “l-o-v-e”
both screaming out loud
“I hate you keep loving me”
it’s twisted,
but doesn’t it scare you?
my eyes will tell you lies
a classic instrument of disguise
just look cautious into my soul
take a jacket-it gets cold.
don’t be reckless in there
don’t tamper w/my despair
don’t play in my sorrow
it’ll haunt you tomorrow.
and then my mind will reveal
nothing but the truth,
about all the Love I’ve got-
just not for you.
i don’t love you.
I don’t love you.
5,000 times
I don’t love you.
I figured this might scare you,
I didn’t know it would kill you.
