My heart
It aches so
It used to ache for you
Now it yearns for fire
Flames to destroy your memory
Embers to slowly wither away
Wither away to darkness
Where you left me

Return for me not
Let me go
How many times can you run your blade
Through my beating heart
The blood is on the floors
Smeared on the walls of my bedroom
Drenching my sheets
But my heart still manages a beat

Let my heart regain its strength
Clean the ****** scene you left me in
Pick up the pieces I was ripped into
Find band-aids, gauze, and medical tape
Try and stop the blood spew
stop it from covering everything
everything that ever brought me any joy
Stop it before all I can see is crimson

Do not contact me
I need not hear the sound of your voice
Be reminded of the warmth of your arms
the feel of your lips
your hands in my hair
our fingers intertwined
the sound of you sleeping next to me
waking in the night and reaching for you

You have become my nightmare
The reason I wake in a cold sweat
I try and pretend
pretend my heart is mended
Draw a smile on my face
Superglue my tear ducts shut
You murdered me
then left me here to clean the mess
