over the border 
we tipping forward
i curl into indiscretions
we on the border
i'm thinking further
what if i can't deliver
what if i'm way too damaged
could you see past 
every indention 
and the pain 
can all the transparent 
thoughts 
go away 
can loving me 
be a symbol
to test your faith
trickling into wanting 
someone that never called again
yet you've been here counting 
several polygraphic
justifying indifferences 
that bestowed upon 
the reasoning that i can't explain 
what seeps into the unknowning
yet i'm afraid
and as you rise to deliver 
borderline to agree 
to jumping head first into 
leaving my old tainted 
memories
