Nightmare

Heart beats loud in my chest

adrenaline hammering me in

ha, I like the chase


I feel them tiptoe,

closer, though silently

its too much excitement to handle


Blood on the floor

screams of my own


I can't tell what's bad or good


when the knife

could easily be in my hand too


or, it's more laughing


more words directed to

stab

in my heart


just as painfully

as the silver toy


or the silver

isn't pointing to my heart


just another's

whose heart I truly care for


for when the scarlet red waterfall,

hurts them


It hurts me more

for it lasts forever, not a minute


Then all the love comes

trying to help

mend the pieces


of the heart

that's always breaking me


And I collect that love

in a jar


Just to give away

so other people can have it


I collect, then give away it all

to feel like I'm making people happy


To stop more hearts from breaking


So the stab

that is welcomed

every night


Could possibly hurt less.


But it never does.
