too

Maybe I am too far gone -

too broken,
overprotective of these
slivers of heart
held tightly in my
palms.

too angry,
simmering in my
own fury,
saturated,
marinated in
frustration and hatred.

too sad,
mourning years of words
I left unspoken,
hands never reached for,
the love I kept locked in
for fear that it would bleed
away-

Maybe I am too much
for you.
Maybe I always will be.
