In Limbo

In Limbo

Whenever I talked 

with you, my heart was

perched on the edge of 

my tongue, contemplating 

whether or not to take 

the chance and fall, but like

the coward I was, I swallowed

it down each time and tried

not to mind the taste of 

blood lingering in my mouth. 

Now, I think the saddest 

thing of all is how you never 

knew that out of every person

in the room, you would forever

be the only one that I would 

choose.
