In the moment I wanted to say I hate you. In the moment I wanted to punch you in the gut, For it felt as if you had just done that to me. In the moment I wanted to scream out to show the pain that I was feeling. In the moment I wanted to rip your heart out and feed it to you... And yet... In the moment I laughed, Put on a brave face, And said "that didn't hurt... The way I imagined it would." In the moment I was right... In the moment you broke up with me, I was blissfully numb. I curled up in bed and breathed a sigh of relief; And in that moment I began to cry so violently that my lungs wanted to escape, I begged the tears to stop, And they kept rolling anyways... And I looked at places for rent; In that moment...I was broken. In the next moment I rebuilt the wall that used to linger around my heart before you claimed it.

In the moment you broke up...and I rebuilt the wall
