Left Alone

The cold grip that held on to the failures that I committed

slowly loosened as I watched those dark forest eyes look into my soul

as if it were my mom watching over me .

The pain struck my heart like an icicle had pierced its sharp tip through my chest

yet all I felt was anger not pain but the boil of the idea that it was him who had left me to rot 

Not a stranger in search for money or jewels 

but the one I loved and trusted 

Cursed my name through the act of selfishness and left me to rot in the stench of their deeds 

leaving me missing as if I were just another lost puzzle piece.
