Bitter Sister:
Don't want to leave
like this
want to pick you up
in my arms
kiss you and tell
you - I have
stored away and
protected,
this love I have for
you.
Don't want to feel
like this,
Like the only way
into your
heart is when it's
vulnerable.
Making it seem as if
I hate you
When I just don't
want you to hate me.
Never could
I even dislike
you,snide remarks,
resentments
I have endured-
Because I hoped,
and took the shots.
Realizing that my
defense was strong
my retaliation could
kick you into
eternal
wickedness.
I surrendered
I Love you
too much, to let
you continue hurting
yourself, to hurt
me.
You won't see me
again
As I aggravate
your condition on
sight.
Transposing
your guilty,trading
places with
innocence.
as I remind you of
your
well held onto
condition.
The truth is I want
to
hold you and tell
you
It's fine-
I want to clear your
eyes.
let you see that
the love is here
It cannot be
released.
I cannot complete
the task;until you
ask.
