I really did love my cat <3

[foipoeta]

assim como uma caneta perde a intensidade da tinta conforme o uso,

eu perco o brilho, o êxtase, a empolgação da vida conforme existo.

Band-aid

"Just put a band-aid on", you inflicted at cost.

I'm forbearing with these silent words you're leaving.

Spin out my cuts when I could've been healed by now.

The longer we stay, the deeper the pain I bear.

Many weeks you've been hiding your head in the sand

You forget to think about how I was feeling.

A simple 'no' replaced by some flowery words

And I played dumb until you say it directly.

Salt in the wound right at the bottom of my heart.

I swore that black is white, yet darkness catered me.

Pulled you closer to me with my hand on your wrist

I thought my scar faded but it appeared again.

You say I'm the kindest, never the prettiest

That's why I'm so soft because I don't have the face

But those excuses made me even uglier.

Wait 'til I tire myself and be the opposite.

When is this got to end, or will it never be?

Who knows if I'll be happy with this forever.

I'd rather lose you now with greatest memories

Than having you aged filled with regrets and sorrow.
