He didn't hear me the second time. by Jolie JordanNo,
your attempts were not in vain.
I lowered my weight
until I was able to slip under yours,
and I folded my limbs were you collapsed
allowing friction to subside to rest
but you catch and carry these thoughts
that you just might smother me here;
and you do,
but
not
like
that.
I do not apologize to you
and you might understand this
though they do not. (and will never)
Laying my remorse to sleep
under dimmed blankets of white,
this is where I told you that I was worthless (..I'm not worth this.)
You spat harshy,
and wept.
And I could only sit there;
next to your strong frame, now made unsteady
( .staring at the pavement. )
"I told you I was worthless.." 06/19/2004 Author's Note: He's the only one who ever cried, and it was my shortest relationship ever. on other note, I was laying in bed last night..thinking about deleting my library.
