Heart

today is pathetic fallacy
like the start to a poem
except it’s the end 
and i would rip my heart out
if you just asked for it
you didnt 
but i did it anyway
and now it’s between us
and it’s oozing blood 
all my love for you 
seeping into your carpet
slowly
tik. tok. tik
waiting for an answer
except i don’t want it 
let it be silent
leave the stones unturned
just for a little while
or forever.

Kind of chaotic but in a cool way. Nicely done.
