A Seed Planted In Me

A seed planted in me

Through what some call love

It grew silently

In the stillness

Your seed

I feed

With insecurity

Soaked in my wet dream

Pain fills me inside

Too afraid to shout

In my bloated stomach I hide

The piece you left behind

Days pass by

Under the moonlight

You grow distant

So I look in the books and regret

Giving up a part of me

Just to be stolen

So I never valued this thing called love

But then from within

I felt what grew from my sin

Sick within

Torn again

Maybe I learned my lesson

This time around

Maybe it’s time to stop

‘Cause I’ve been looking for love

In all the wrong places
