Heart-Shaped Guilt

The blue light in your eyes is a gentle ocean,

And I am the anchor dragging you down.

I know it hurts to go through the notions,

But no one can stop me from leaving the town.

The changes hit me so hard, I fell apart.

I could not keep a single thing from breaking.

Yet, I wish I could have saved your heart,

Could have hidden the smiles I have been faking.

But now it is just your blue eyes and mine,

And I do not even know if you see my colors.

All I have learned is that I keep crossing lines,

Spilling my heart-shaped guilt on others.
