Catching the blues
M.R.P 2000 (Bushbuckridge)
You break me
Twilight kryptonite
My heart so fragile
Your blue ticks are tortuous
Torn to tears by your silence
Quietly, I pray time takes you
Without intention but to keep
I came back
I wish your blues did not spike my care
I wished you stayed new for my best
That's a cost I cannot bare
I thought I'd be on an adrenaline rush
But I'm rather running for my life
Another next time, hello, to keep
About this poem
If it's love, it's in denial
