Aching Paper

You are making me nervous I can feel the perspiration flowing from the side of my face Producing a long tiny line of water here and there I'm debating weather I should write my book report on your perfectly straight lines I'm thinking about how much you'd be torn if I erased your jagged edges Staring at the small three circles towards the left of your body Sends a wonderful sensation down my spine I can tell that you are trying to change my mind I can tell you don't want me to write on you I can tell you are pleading on the inside Now what do I do. I'm looking at you and I can't explain why I'm doing this Should I change my mind Has my feelings changed for you today Gazing at my name in big bold letters at the top of the page Shows me that you are in more pain than you were before Torn on the inside, but not broken I see that everything is divergent now and I'm hurting your soul Your once white body with blue lines has changed You are not the same You look old and rusty Now you're wrinkled with gray lines instead of blue lines Tears are bleeding from my eyes on the inside and out I can't stop this pain I have put you through I know this thing we have will never last I now know that this was and is your fate I mustn't write on you, not now not ever This isn't the way things are supposed to go I know I can't change the past, but for now Be safe, run away Don't turn back I'm begging you, please I'm setting you free And as you're running down the street, I can feel a tiny tear forming in the center of my tearing eye
