So Tell Me . . .
Tell me how it feels
to have your heart pierced by an arrow
not by one of Cupid's
but by betrayal
Tell me how it feels
when the poison leaked into your heart
when your heart turned black
how it withered away
Tell me how it feels
when the ashes were blown away
what stands in it's place
how do you live with the emptiness
Tell me how it feels
to know you can't piece it back together
how the cold spread through your limbs
the way your blood burned
Tell me how it feels
to give up
to hate the sun and all it's warmth
living under your rock
Tell me how it feels
when you felt the poison in your veins
and your heart disappeared
when the tears fell silently
Tell me how it feels
to know you will never live again
never love the light
to surrender all that you once were
So tell me how do you live like this
with this
surrounded by this
Infected by this poisonous arrow of betrayal
I have no clue as to what inspired this, it just kinda flew out of me.
