LIST OF HEARTS

Overcame, you overcame my will.

Before I even knew it

the walls that I built

had collapsed around me.

Before I could run

Your bullets had pierced

My heart I protected so.

Never did I think

the innocent exchanges we shared

would mean anything

But here I sit and daydream

About it over and over again.

You have overcame my urge,

urge to resist the power

you have casted upon me.

Tied my hands back without ropes,

You hold me as a prisoner without a gun.

I sit here to be set free

For your love, I know

was not for me.

None of your games,

Be true and let me be.

Don’t hide your intentions

Behind your sweet words

Telling me what I want to hear

And none of what I need.


You overcame my will to resist,

to see if I would be true to my will.

no longer do I have to give

the love you already so took

with your power and will.

Hopelessly I let myself play

this game some call love or lust.

Losers and winners rise everyday

But I stay losing against you every +me.

So just end this game,

Take your seat at your throne

And add me to your list,

The List of heart you overcame.
