you assail me with indifference
pragmatism
and urgent unbeliefs
striving mightily
to disprove my heart
(humanity's heart)
with unpious pretense

i can touch you
(from here)
and it terrifies you

another victim
left to bleed
while you flee
fearful of pain
you could scarcely comprehend

turn but once,
and lost you'll be
beholding a heart
that believes
things you don't even know
(playing at knowing isn't the same as knowing you know)
