My unknown lover

I\'m sorry, 
My unknown lover.

I didn\'t mean to leave you
With all of these broken pieces,
With a lesser version of myself.

I tried to put myself together
But only hurt myself in the process.

I\'m sorry,
My unknown lover
But all I have are

tired eyes
& worn skin
to offer to you.

I tried to let go,
I tried to guard myself.

I wanted to lay my heart down,
With needle and thread in my palms
I offer myself to you;

My unknown lover,
to sew me back together,
& pry the sundew
out from under my skin.

So be gentle,
& be kind,
I am too fragile
to hold myself together
on my own.

I don\'t know what to say,
Except sorry my unknown lover,
For having dirt crusted onto 
the bottoms of my feet,
& bruises on legs,
Scattered with scars 
On my heart
From lovers past.

I\'d trade it all for you,
If you promised to care for me,
If you promised to stay for a while;

My unknown lover.
