Message

You leave messages on my heart,
They were only clearer when you tore it apart.
There is a reason we never worked out,
So don't leave me another message of doubt.

You stuck your hand in the fire,
I think it's time you should retire.
I have met your words with regret,
It doesn't matter if you're set.

You caress the danger of having me near,
Clouding what was once clear.
You leave bitterness in your wake,
And believe it is all just for your sake.

You try to leave another message on my arm,
But that message will only cause me harm.
You try to dig it through my blood to my soul,
But with each imprint it takes a toll.

One day, I won't be a notebook,
Then you know you've lost your hook.
I left a message for you the other day,
but these words were things I say.

The only message I will leave for you,
Is that I love you, no matter what you do.
