something poetic

By to love a psycho

pushing outwards
moving backwards in time
hoping to unwind the past
without a sound
walking on water
feels like a sin
when you have nothing
you just cant win
i want to rip off my skin
and be somebody else
take back all the words
the actions and the time
that i used so selfishly
not even thinking
who did i hurt when all i wanted
was love
why am i the way i am
and why cant i change

"who did i hurt when all i wanted was love" those words are like a trip-line onto which I have stumbled and then was blown to dumb-struck pieces. Maybe I should just keep it simple and say, Nice work. I enjoyed, thoroughly.
