Tear

Do you even recall my name
as you scream out another's?
Do you even want to speak to me
now that the damage has been done?
Do you recall the touch, the taste
of our skin coupled with anger?
I reach for you now and feel jagged breezes
I'm fooling myself to make you believe in magic
I have given you everything and you have given me foolishness
and naivety, and everything I thought was love
I ache for you to feel
and yet your name stares at me,
nonchalant, uncaring,
defiant.
It makes me want you even more
knowing that you're staring at my name
with a different contempt than mine
you break the heart you didn't know you had
Laugh and prance around the stake which it is held upon
And I still taste you on my lips
although I've never tasted you before
And I still know you turn away in disgust
every time I scrawl your name through my lungs
And I breathe for you sometimes
(more oftentimes than not)
and you've given me a reason
(to stay awake on those weekends)
And you've given me a chance
(it's just I took it much too far)
I'm so afraid of this the most
it's an all-or-nothing thing
and you chose nothing before I even leapt
into that crater of nothingness
