I suppose it might be
Could be
Hopefully
Be something more.
The fact that you
Love
Like
Lust
Someone else
Is tearing me apart.
To have a million hearts,
Pieces that it,
Is more than anyone
Could bear.
I have to wear and care for
Them every day.
I wash them,
Feed them,
Put them together
But they end up broken.
I end up hoping
Once again.
