This story
Is not just mine
To tell
It’s a kaleidoscope
Of colors
And words
That not even
Time
Could write

You left
In an array
Of words
That penetrated
My skin
Like bullets
Leaving wounds
In my soul

I’ve no defense
For your plays
I succumb
Every time
To
Your call

I’ve no strength
For your advances
I give in
Every time
To
Your need

I’ve no choice
For your requests
I desire
Every time
To
Your pleasure

I’ve no regret
For  your  satisfaction
I receive
Every time
To  
My existence

I’m that girl
That won’t let go
Hanging on tight
Until the goodbye

I’m that girl
That won’t believe
I’m not that one
Until you say those words

I’m that girl
That will love you still
Through a broken heart
Until the rest of my life

I miss you
Tonight
When the moon
Is waning
When my heart
Is empty
When my being
Is aching
When the earth
Orbits the moon
And you
Are far away
Such foolishness
I’ll be done
With the sunrise
A new beginning
My soul soothed
And the promise
Of a new day

I’m not
That girl
Who goes
Quietly
You can
Bet your ***
There is
Gonna be
A Ruckus

I’m mess
Needn’t tell you
I’m pretty sure
You know

My heart
Is broken
No matter
Your kindness

I can’t
Love anyone
I’m tapped out
You see

Just a shell
All that’s left
Of the girl
I used to be
