Broken Hearted Girl

July 2, 2013

(poems go here)

I saw you checking me out on the first day of school

I watched as your eyes carefully examined my body

I listened to you say your full name

I heard your government name escape your lips

I went blind upon your beauty

I was attracted your smile

I lusted for your body

I experienced love at first sight

I wanted the official label

I went deaf when you said you had a girlfriend

I walked away when you talked about her

I ignored you when you spoke of forever with her

I shook my head when I saw you and her together

I was speechless when I saw your lips touch hers

I was angry when you called me out of my name

I witnessed you spitting on my image

I heard you run my name in the ground

I cried when you said you didn’t love me

I listened to the echo of your promises fade

They faded away along with the concept of you

I can hear the sirens now

My heart beat dropping rapidly

The machine prolonging its last beep

Pronounced dead I was

Responsible for my death, was my beloved

Deceased, from a broken heart.
