It's been no longer than a day
And the sight of you
Is more than I can bare
And a mere thought of you
Turns my face a flush crimson
Those eyes
Whether a hazel or ocean blue
I dare not stare into them
For I fear
You'll glare in pity
Roses die and wither
My heart is blue and black
For the many times
It has broken
Your golden dreds
Like mine but different
You a young man
But I barely a young woman
Older and mature
Against young and foolish
The concept of rejection
Sends me into scarlet frustration
The roses die and wither
My heart a broken mess
For reasons
I am ashamed of
For the way
I spite my emotions
Falling for a man
only to get thrown away
Only to get mocked
And only to get hurt
I'm like a clown puppet
I end up to be his fool
On a woodstock stage
When I run I get pulled back
By the ropes that bind me
Now locked up in chains
My heart cold and black
I give up thinking
About him
