HAPPIER

-ThePurpleRune

You say you love me now

But would you still love me when my bare soul is out?

When I show you the monster within, tell me how

Can I be your brightest star when I’m burnt out

Are you willing to sacrifice it all just to hold

Remember me for faster sign in

a harbinger of doom, you should know I’m no good.

My dark and empty soul would swallow you whole

I can’t even love myself, this I’ve understood.

So just run far away, as I watch you with my wary gaze

to a place where roses have no thorns,

where cloudy days are nothing but fairytales,living out your days in love’s blissful shore.

Not mine I know,

But you’ll be happier as I let you go.
