Beyond heart broken, and time remains frozen
Hanging off an intangible edge, holding on
To what feels like emptiness, I’ve lost it
Me, myself and my eroding shield of skin
Is wearing thin, along with my hope
Wearing paper thin, i’m transparent like a ghost
Feels like only my being remains
Since my guts fell outside my body a while ago
Falling, and I’m still watching them fall endlessly,
**** this because I still feel it, it’s never ending pit of pain
My heart has collapsed within itself
Yet has preserved hers to make me remember
Every moment she told me she loved me
Scarred within my pupils, when I looked into hers
I almost want to forget, how real it was in the moment
So I could never tell myself it must’ve been a lie
All along, I guess I could say I felt it somewhat
Denial is dangerous, so keep a second opinion handy
