The Highlander

His heart was in the highlands and mine was down by the sea. Although we were different in every way, I felt as though he was the one for me. I gave him my heart, I poured out my soul I trusted him completely and now in my chest, he has left a hole. I felt betrayed and depressed, but I forgave him all the same, believing the fault was mine and that he was not to blame. My wrists are now bleeding, staining my white shirt red, I know not to keep my heart on my sleeve, but to keep it locked far away instead.

In case you ever see this Highlander, just know I have been hurt, I don't trust you, no matter how much I want to. I can't.
