Fragile Heart

walking solo in my dreams.
unprotected, at the seams.
I wear my heart out on a sleeve.
exposed of my obscure side.
I laugh in my demented way.
my eyes detest your lips that lie.
My shield is up, case you die.
My fragile heart, fears your tenacious mind.
pitiless, I try not to care of what you left behind.
deliberately, you leave footprints in the sand.
graciously, I hold your hand.
My anxiety arises, terror In my eyes.
spitefully, you plan your alibis.
chuckling, to myself
disheartened, and in doubt.
you are disillusioned and enraged.
I caught on to what you planned, to what you staged.
fearless to pursue the game.
I lay there in fright, this is not my kind of pain.
