MY BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARE

ARIACNA SANDOVAL

I gave you every inch of my heart, and you gave me a cold. All I wanted to be was your art; so sensitive, beautiful, and bold.

But you dared not care if I was with joy or with pain. Everything I did for you led us nowhere, yet here I go again.

You are the tempest I continue to follow. Growing weary, furious, and drowned. Oh dear, your love for me has become hollow, and from your heart I have been disbound.

Now I cry and wait for my next heartbreak. A terrible dream in which I refuse to wake.

HATE CANNOT
