You Are Safe

Don't you think I write for you
I take inspiration from anywhere I can
Don't you think my pen
Spells out your name with rhymes you can't understand
I have sewn lines
That I balance on without effort
I have hardened my heart
My indifference to love should make you feel better
Do not raise your head
When you come to speak to me
Conceit is an ugly companion
It will only cause my benign love for you to flee
Do not be afraid
Of the webs of words that I weave
I don't write to you
I don't pine for you
I swear you are safe
And that's all your ignorance should need
