Just Like

I’ve lost you.

Everything you stood for.

I opened up my heart to you.

Completely, my door was open forever.

I was innocent. I was available. I was yours.

 

Wednesday.

You toppled my everything.

With a divine thrust of misguided trust.

You deceived me, placed a black widow down my throat.

You drenched me in gasoline, you lit me on fire.

 

I am poisoned from the inside.

You commanded.

My veins and arteries wrapped around you like unearthed roots.

Like a parasite you sucked me dry of anything I had left.

 

I could not hurt more.

My eyes cannot produce any more tears.

You killed my heart.

You killed my love.

It’s just like suicide.
