damage

They say trust is like
giving someone a gun
and praying they don't shoot.
But what they don't know,
is that I am the bullet
and you are a faulty weapon
with an all-too-easy trigger.
No matter how much
we think we complete
each other,
when we touch,
we are only
doing damage.
Because we are held
by a world that cannot
handle a loaded gun baby. 

And too many lives
have been wasted
by wanting
what will ruin
us in the end.
