Heartbroken
Bleeding from love's gentle touch, I lay in the shell i created for myself
Paralyzed against the cold floor with no other thoughts but WHY
Pain flooded my body and mind as the answers eluded me
Warm water engulfs my eye and blurs my vision
And with a blink it runs down my cheek.
My sanity, breaks down into fragmented pieces of a jigsaw
My mind crumbles to ruins like those of Babylon
Each shard of my mind is a glitchy tape recorder
Caught in a loop of traumatic events
Whilst loneliness pervades me and echos of sadness ripple through me.
It all seemed too perfect to end
I realized too late it was all just pretend
I thought it'd be me and you in the end
but i was wrong for too long
Now my heart is broken.
Love made me vulnerable while it besieged my heart
But this bleeding heart of mine i hope would heal
For TIME they say all wounds heal
Though scars i know might remain
To remind me of broken promises, lies and pain.
