Now A Vagabond

It was in first class 

When this heart was yelled at

For coloring a sketch prior to being ordered. 

So before the final bell rang

It managed to erase the sketch 

And bleached its red hue as well

Waiting for the day

Someone will command, 

"Color It Now". 

There was a man in my family 

Who liked this heart so much that

He tried to pull it out of my chest

The day he found me alone. 

This heart was left that day

Feeling ugly. 

But it still believed

Someone would find it beautiful.

And years later

When your heart found it

You found it different

You found it interesting

And promised to love it 

Without modifications

But then things fall apart

You got mad

And you said a lot of things

That shouldn't have been said

And now

This heart

Is angry.

So this heart paints itself black

And decides

Tonight

This heart will make you jealous.

This heart is broken

But it will not shatter. 

Aiming its way 

To the nearest heart

It makes the first move

Because after the fight

This heart wanted to offend

Wanted to be destructive

Wanted to break 

Every other heart 

In this goddamned world

Just to prove a point. 

Because this heart

Couldn't stand the fact

That it belonged to you. 

That every other heart

Was an ineligible

Inappropriate

Inadmissible

Intolerable

Insensible

Interpretation of you.
