poemoftheday – Too Far From the Sun

let yourself be born again
and rinse yourself with rain

seeing him come and go
with the beautiful way he hurts you so

the pain you carry
from before you knew
where pain comes from
before you even remembered

Don’t play with fire if you’re too cold

if you’re going to love me
you need to understand
that I love me,
and I love me too much
to watch myself suffer.
