Your eyes always spoke the words
Right from my fingertips
Taking them out of my hand
And into your control
I was always willing
At any command
So you did
What any of us would do
And beheaded me
Cut me in two
See,
I was too plain
So you remade
What you could
Pushing me into a new mold
Draining my light,
How was I to see
You feed yourself
Taking parts of me
As I was starving
Running in circles
To satisfy your ideas
And be the art you dreamed
Except
I became the ticking bomb
You lit the fuse to
So reduced I am
To the dried out ash
Of your remains
Still begging for your flames
So
I would whimper the months
Leading to the day
Where you didn't hold the beat
Definite in my heart,
But I tell myself
It never would of worked
You wanted more
Than I could ever be
And
You left me
As i sewed my thoughts back together
I could never find one
You didn’t set
I only know the parts of me
That have you folded in
I only know a future
That has your frame
Someday
I will smash it into
The million pieces you left
Right behind you
