I Only Bleed Blue Poem by Rachel Hankins

I wish I could find the right words
but they all seem the same now
I can't tell you everything I want
It means nothing to you some how

Ive told you everything my heart has to give
but it's not enough for you to believe
I am not sure how to keep you around
yet it is such a tangled web we weave

You own my heart
every day I tell you that you do
I pour my soul into us
but I still can only bleed blue

I breathe in this air
your scent suffocating only me
I loved you from the moment we met
you never realized to what degree

you leave me now
my body dying so slow
i'm sure that my body will wither
and you wont show
