Jan 2013
The pain rips through me like we're cut by a knife,
An excruciating burning of my heart ignites.
And I reach for the needle to stitch us back up,
You push it away saying the pain is too much.
You let the wound fester and bleed,
Until there's nothing left of you and me.
A bond sliced clean through by an outside hand,
One I thought was as strong as iron to stand.

Fate is uncanny in such a wild way,
We never know who will fall astray.
I stand alone in patience still,
Waiting for you to cure my ill.

Dearest love I want you to know,
You took my heart when we broke.
A needle and thread just out of reach,
Was all that cost me my mental peace.
Trying in vain to make it disappear,
But the scars between us will always be there.
For Nathan
