Heart on My Sleeve
L-0-V-E
1,2,3,4Its funnyLove is an even numbered wordYet the odds are still against meI used to wear my heart on my sleevesNow, haNow my sleeves are rolled upWhat does that mean?It means I forfeit the game of loveI gave up the Disney prince expectationsI abandoned my hopeless romantic waysI left "think with your heart not mind" aloneI backed outBlatantly surrenderedSadly threw in the towelTradgically walked away without looking backI quitI quit I quitI...I rolled up my sleevesThe sleeves are rolledFinal cuff is rolledIts rolledThe love is deadAnd my heart will be buried under these layersUntil it can be resurected again.
