Love Poem: Payback

Payback

Why do I give a fck  that
Its your birthday
Why do I give a fck
When  I’m worth way 
More than this torture
Cause I counted 245 days
Since I felt your lips
Add 37 more and that’s the day
You put all these rips
Yet I still want to take 
Devil flower nectar sips
Even after you slit my wrists
I still care that you think I’m fine
And that my poetic lines 
Can still blow your mind
So I’ll write you a verse 
I’ll conjure up some random magical curse
Void of feeling to manipulate 
Your feelings speed up your heart
Then snatch the ladder up from under- 
Neath your heart make you fall again
Build a wall just to stain
With your emotional pain
Make you really learn to hate
The meanings of fate
Crossing from love to hate
I’ll break these fcking 
Gates built to keep me out
I’ll kick your soul in
And shout
Look what I did
Yes it’s me the one you hid
From and did some
Thing forgettable 
Who cares what it was
But it’ll be regrettable
Cause regrets make us human
Love makes us not human
So I’ll make you regret
That you love me
Just for payback
