You're thoughtless Staring into the sun Damning his existence For burning your eyes. You're thoughtless Throwing away a penny Naming it useless For being only copper. You're thoughtless Kissing my crying lips, Pulling back in disgust, Repulsed by the cracks. You're thoughtless Noticing only the heat, Not the wind, nor the reason Why butterflies Exist. |
