Bleeding Heart
One more knife in my heart,
One more wound I have to patch up.
One more dagger I must dodge,
But it sticks anyway.
It’s alright,
It’s not like it hurts.
My heart slowly hardens to this pain,
But you don’t even notice.
You’re living in a shattered world,
With glass and blood everywhere.
I’m bleeding,
But you just keep wounding everything
In your way.
The pain threatens to consume my heart,
Squeezing it.
But my heart barely manages to escape every time.
My soul is in ruins,
But I am saved.
I don’t think I will make it,
But I do,
Every single time.
My pain is my salvation.
My pain is my joy.
The pain is always two steps behind me,
No matter how fast I run.
I’m running the lonely race,
But I’m not alone.
