Landmine

 One day, if you were allowed to venture

far enough into my life
You might be caught off guard
Seeing a landmine of broken pieces
Of me

I know
At this point
Many people will simply
Turn back
And walk away

I know
I cannot hope for anyone to stay
Not everyone can
Not everyone will
Not even those tied to you by blood
They are not yours
To keep

Enough of holding back
All my thoughts
All my feelings
It's suffocating
