Description
~Waning Heart~She's my heart,
She gives me life from my chest,
To the tips of my toes and back,
To my brain where there's nothing but static,
All I ever wanted was to know what I wanted,
To make sense of my thoughts,
The night terrors plague me,
When I forget how fragile life is.
I want to be free,
Afraid to play a role in my own ruin,
I feel something biting me that I cannot shake,
A stinging, throbbing pain,
Fear,
All I ever dreamed of was to usher this heart into a future,
One worth wanting and not paying the price,
Regretting not reaching for it when it was close,
My heart is just as silly as the fantasy,
To which I retreat so as not to remember where I am,
I cannot fool me,
Brain buzzing,
Trying to find answers,
I don't know what to tell myself,
She's getting irritated because she's in pain,
I don't know how to stop it,
She will never trust me again.

This is cool...the line you begin with "She's my heart,
She gives me life from my chest,
To the tips of my toes and back" is fantastic...it captures the reader immediately

Thank you, this was one of my strange ones, I was trying to write so the ends of some of the lines could be read to mean two different things. That line for example, "To the tips of my toes and back," I was thinking of shivers down the back as well as it being a part of the following line like this, "back...to my brain where there's static" I like putting these tricks in there so different people can read it in different ways.
