I didn't love you, but I knew you were broken; so I ripped out my heart for you.
It thundered in your chest; weeping like a martyr
Now all I do is echo.
Words ricochet like stray bullets in an iron lung.
I am breathing water now babe.
And I don't know how to stop saying sorry.
Im sorry that I pulled you out from the seas falling from your eyes.
Im sorry that I forgot to mention that I do not remember how to swim.
I am standing alone on this cliff, my love.
Perched on this shallow rift; wind whipping through my cotton sleeves.
Lacing I love yous and broken promises into all of the half stitched seams.
This emptiness, this empty space by my side is so mocking because your face is plastered into every blank space.
Each pause between the torrent of waves.
I didnt love you, but I lost my heart to you.
All I can do now is trudge through this rampant sea of apathy you left in its place.
