Description
I thought
That if I kept my heart hard and rigid,
That it’d be safe, it wouldn’t crack.
That’s why I slipped it in your pocket.

I thought
That you’d know to keep it safe,
That you would understand how I felt.
That didn’t even require your love.

I thought
That I could trust you, maybe even love you,
That you were the perfect guy.
That was just too much fantasy on my behalf.

I thought
That your smile was expendable, a daily happening
That the glittering in your blue eyes was maybe for me
That was quite dumb.

I know
That hearts shouldn’t be given away the I did it,
That you never felt the same for me.
That hurts, and that’s dumb.

I know
That you love another girl, and I shouldn’t care anymore
That I need to move on and live without you.
That sounds utterly impossible.

I know
That hearts shouldn’t be kept so hard and stiff,
That hearts should be more bendy, flexible.
That stuff should have been told to me a while ago.

I wish
That I could have made my heart stronger by doing so,
That my heart was all rubbery and easily folded,
That would make it harder to fold and crack to pieces.

I wish
That you could have just slammed it against a wall,
That you could have just tried slamming it,
That way, it wouldn’t have broke.

I wish
That this heart wasn’t melting so fast now,
That my liking and hopes for love just fly everywhere now.
That makes me feel like my love’s just waste.
I wish I knew what you thought.
