please don’t break my heart
and grow far when i need you most
please don’t pull away when your pain feels too deep and exposed
please don’t act like money doesn’t matter when it does
please don’t forget you’re actually the one who brought it up
please don’t let me fall in love if you’ve got no real plan
to open up your heart to me even when you feel you can’t
please don’t say you’re in it for the long haul if you’re not
save me the heartache if you just want this thing we’ve got
please don’t look at me with love if you’re too scared to do it
please don’t make me look back on this saying, ‘i knew it’
please don’t take my stuff without asking or giving reason
it triggers me in ways you didn’t know
just don’t deceive me
with words that hint at futures or some little clones of us
it’s hard for me to open up
let alone really trust
please don’t take these words as though i’m telling you what to do
we both said we wouldn’t do that and i still think that’s true
the truth is i’m not telling i’m just asking this of you
don’t let me fall in love if you’ve got no intentions to
and if you love don’t love with half your heart for fear it stops
or as though you’re always waiting for the other shoe to drop
please don’t fear that i’ll run off and chase some others love
take me at my word when i say you’re all i’m thinking of
please know how in it i am
how little i care for games
please be honest with me
then trust i’ll do the same
please forgive me when my anger speaks before my grace
at times like that, don’t listen to my words, look at my face
lastly please don’t break my heart
cause there’s only so many times
i can put it back together and somehow still call it mine.
Beautiful, true and in the moment. "Cause there's only so many times I can put it back together and somehow still call it mine."
Love this poem! What’s your favorite song lately? Still loving I look to you. Such a classic
