You said you'd never leave,
My heart sinks.
You love to paint my face
With the colors of pain.
Red, blue, black, white,
Red for the stained glass,
Shattered pieces of my heart.
Blue, the color of life,
Waves of teal,
Deep
Enticing yet,
Light as tears.
Black for a bruised soul,
And tainted lungs
A demonic smile.
White for a broken
Bag of bones
A ragged, torn body.
You were a hurricane
In a tropical paradise.
A tornado in a field of daisies,
And I,
A lone daffodil.
I never knew
A hole replacing
The space where my
Heart used to be
Could give me more
Feeling than any
Sky, land or sea.
