Changed Your Mind

I would swallow all my fears to
Seize the chance you hold you dear.
I would let the butterflies in my stomach swarm,
Just to let you feel my warm.

I would sacrifice my ego,
Weep in a state of shame.
I was ready to do anything,
But I just can’t take the pain.

Broken promises; stone-cold stares.
Emptiness at its very best.

I would have felt better,
Fought like a warrior.

Only if you hadn’t
Changed your mind.
