Ode to a Freezing Valentine’s Day by Melodie Yvonne
How can you be so cruel,
when my heart’s lying there on the floor?
How come you just can’t see,
this realio trulio heart in me?
I went naked where I wanted to hide,
and all you did was lied while I cried.
I went naked all up in my brain,
but all you did was call me insane.
How can you be so cruel,
drag me around and make me your fool?
How come you just cant be free?
You realio trulio don’t get me.
Why can’t you let yourself feel?
Writhe in it with me until it is real!
Busy as busy as busy does,
it’s all just a place to hide under your rug.
