Heart Switch ~
I am my own guise
Because no one can see inside
Even when they try
I realign the pieces every time you leave
Don’t let anyone know
But goodbyes are the hardest thing for me
I feel too much all the time
I’m quite aware of this
But that’s my heart
That’s mine
It seems to be perpetually inexorable
No matter what you do to it
I wish I had a Heart Switch
So I could switch it off and leave
All I need and all I’ve ever wanted are my dreams
Love only distracts me and leaves me bruised
I don’t function with a melted heart
And I can’t take it when you say you love me
And then break my trust
My wound is wide open
And the salt you pour in with the things you say
Every time you lie a piece of me fades away
I wish I had a Heart Switch
So I could wrap a fence around it
I have an aptitude for nothing
I’m deviant in everything
Break my heart and take it with you when you leave
So I no longer need an excuse to believe.

That is a great piece of Poetry...and excuse me if I am wrong, could only have been constructed by personal experience coz it has all the signs of Love and Betrayal...and the feelings one feels...either way, I like your poem...
Thanks for sharing it...

I think you are in pain. Your poem is ok, i can understand your angst. i will just say move on, life is not all about love...its about moving on when love is gone. What is on the horizon is better than what you see in the now. live a full life...move on....

It's heartfelt........and a bit melancholy. Did you just go through a breakup with someone?
