You Said you'd steal my heart
March 2, 2016
You said you’d steal my heart.
there was nothing to steal in first place.
my heart was a canvas of monochromatic black and white scribbles
with holes in many places and no one ever sewed them back together
my heart was a black hole which sucked all my feelings away
and never returned them to me, only kept them
my heart was a piece of scratch paper
and i let many pointless people doodle on it
my heart was never a masterpiece
it was always just an empty place
never a place of warmth inside
only doodles of endless minds.
