Rusty words.

By torn_beauty

Sickness. Such sickness. Love sickness.
What a silly mess to cause such distress.
I don’t love you, you know.
But oh, this sickness!
Stop being angry with me,
I can tell by your silence,
 So don’t lie to me.
 
I hate this feeling. I hate your disappointment. Please just understand…
 
Jealousy. Such jealousy! Stupid jealousy.
Why such emotion? Why such concern?
I don’t love you, you know.
But oh, this Jealousy!
Stop playing with me,
I can tell by your tone,
So don’t lie to me.
 
Insecure? Me, I remember when I was the girl who caught your eye, so long ago…
 
Heart ache. Stupid heart ache. My heart ache.
If only I could have not met you four years since.
I don’t love you. I don’t.
But oh, how it aches!
Stop loving me, please,
I can tell by your words,
But please, just leave me be…
 
I would take my heart out. I would put it away. If only, if only I wanted it that way….
