Painfully Enticing
He ripped out her heart
And left her lying on the sidewalk
A single tear rolled out her eye
and slowly swam down cheek
She didn't know why
She didn't feel her emotions
being torn apart
How could he have broken
Something that was already broken
Her face scarred with a confused
expression
How could he have broken what
had been broken her whole life
Until she became numb to the abuse
And the pain afflicted bacame enticing
She expected it...accepted it
It was all she ever knew.
