Heartless 

From above of cut parts of red broken hearts on light white background

Heartless 

“You’re too emotionless. It’s like you have no heart. I don’t believe you love me as I love you.”

I watched them walk away

As their last words ring in my head

Emotionless?

Heartless?

Don’t they know I have a heart?

Don’t they know that, that heart is breaking with every step they take

Away from me?

Don’t they know my emotions run so high it plays in the heavens

And forgets to come down

That my heart is so sensitive that it runs and hides from others

Don’t they realize that my heart is beats only for their love

And sometimes it skips a beat?

Don’t they know my heart is so fragile

That it built a wall around itself

Don’t they know that I love so hard that I forget to say “I love you”

Don’t they know that my emotions are so strong that I have to bottle them up

Keep them from overflowing

Don’t they know that I love them more than they love me

More than I love myself

More than life

Don’t they know I’m not heartless?
