Blind Love
White, Dave. Pieces. May 18, 2024, Dave White Illustrations.
Am I just too unreasonable?
All I ever want was to have your heart
Are you just too ignorant of that?
All you ever want to do is release me.
I live with all the pains you give me.
But I still love you with all of my heart.
You cut my heart into many parts.
Still, I wish you would never hurt.
You make all my tears like no one.
Still, I want to put your pieces together.
Even though you will never understand.
Still, all my heart ever wanted was to love you.
Am I really just a fool in at heart?
All I ever wanted was to make you happy.
Are you really just heartless?
All you ever wanted was to not to think of me.
