compassion
she lives within all of us
she is a blazing fire in your chest
she ignites when you think of him
you like the, the warmth you get from her
the way your chest aches and rises with your heart
the way your stomach melts and turns into mush
you can’t bear the thought of her fire
going out and your chest becoming think ice
breaking every time you see her fire in another girl’s chest
you can’t bear to see her spark when he holds the other girl’s hand
meanwhile your skin is blue from the lack of fuel
you can’t help but think about the way he made you smile like that
you miss compassion and the way she made fireworks in your eyes
the way compassion made you feel about life before her flame went out
compassion now lives in another girl
the girl that took your compassion
without realizing how cold you would be without it
how blue your heart is
is it even beating any more
compassion will never live in me again
as long as he is giving it to someone else
