*spilling a bit*
You love like noose and neck Like rock, hard place and knuckle Stuck in the limbo of unforgettable moments when emotions under your skin fall crooked from your mouth They fall like hollow promises and empty ring boxes turning me into a makeshift punching bag with a heartbeat Your angry chokes me into silence Like stillborn children searching for their first breath And ain’t no one here to hold me when you won’t Besides, there’s no substitute for you anyway This rib-type love is custom made to fit because I was born for you That’s why it hurts so much when you break me When you detach self from our world And just leave shadows in my arms I always mistreat the shadows for your decisions I try to leave them behind but they always follow me making me remember you And most times I know you’ll come back, but it doesn’t make it hurt any less in It doesn’t stop the blame that lurks in my thoughts During times like this, I feel lost and alone So, when you’re done being frustrated and mad at the world, just come on home P. S. I love you #love #hurt #poetry #yeyodapoet #melanieyeyocarter #anticsofapoet #diaryofadayumpoet
