Purple and Blue

by britney-lyn

Cannot sleep, all these memories are haunting me; purple and blue, a gift from you. Will they stay? When will they fade? To die like the happiness that seems to have left me, oh so heavy. Take this heart, stomp out all the little pieces you created, all the pieces that you hated. Hide my face away from the hidden, show me only to the blind. Trust is not something that is easily given, especially from this heart of mine. Lying on the ground, where you struck me down; battered, betrayed, I pray for the day. Someone save me, for I am too shattered to do so myself, someone save me from this life that is my hell. Help.
