I hugged myself together
After you cut me open
Bandage smeared with blood
That left tracks - beautiful but odd
This used to flow to keep me alive
But it’s now ******* out my life
Where shall I go
When the home I’d known
Wanted me out of the door?
It was sweet of you though
To not let me leave empty-handed
For when you pushed me out
You let me carry a heavy load
Of grief, broken dreams, and lost hope
And as if these were not enough
You soaked my cuts in alcohol
Before you shut the door
Love, what happened to my little heaven?
Did I deserve a shove
Instead of a kiss goodbye?
I stitched the cuts
Even healing hurt too much
Memories filled my heart
With misery and unparalleled ache
I fell in between the cracks
I fell, love, and you didn’t pull me up
