Mar 2014
Like a parasite, you accepted me as your host
and ****** the life out of me
You stole my hopes and aspirations
Ever since you, I've been running on empty,
Drained of everything
Anxiety runs in my veins and depression drowns me
My happiness high tailed it out of here when I accepted you in my life
You were my happiness, my substitute
But happiness cannot be replaced.
What you took from me was more than emotions
You took a hammer to my soul and crushed it like glass.
You threw me to the flames so I could never be the same.
Now you'll reside in hell where you belong,
Next to your actions
And you'll regret what you did to me
But your punishment will never be enough
because the emptiness will never leave me
Everything that fills my void gets rejected
And I can't help but blame myself
Sure, the doctors can surgically remove you
But the scars will always remain.
I wrote this a long time ago about my ex boyfriend.  It's not recent emotions, but I decided to post it since I hadn't posted anything yet.
