crush

pressing down upon my chest,
inwards from all sides.
causing my intestines to flip
and my tongue to lick my lips.

words fly through my head,
ricocheting against my skull.
the right combination is never found,
and something stupid stumbles out.

a crushing blow hits me,
square in the middle of my brain.
i forget how to be myself
and let time wash you away.

Don't let it fade before you catch sight of it.

If its right (maybe not for all time) but for awhile - then you don't have to change for anyone. Say what is true about you - feel how you feel - if they get it - can compromise a bit - then great. If not - move on to someone who doesn't make you work so hard and agnonize over the situation. Love is supposed to be GOOD
