When did your ventricles stop pushing me through?
And why can’t your atriums hold me now too?
No more are the days my presence rests in your veins,
Your arteries don’t even remember my name.
No trace of me in capillary lines,
Their refill’s normal- your pulse
perfectly fine.
A love so strong it once gave you life,
But it seems you’ve bled me out to survive.

No trace of me in capillary lines,
Their refill’s normal- your pulse

A love so strong it once gave you life,
But it seems you’ve bled me out to survive.
