I can't stand this reflection
Because I'm reminded of all the tension
I could barely breathe,
when I saw my soul leave
Bones rattled in loneliness
I became defenseless,
while you were rageful and senseless
You relished in my fears
and the dejectedness of my tears
I was your enemy,
and eventually we learned
My heart innocently yearned,
but instead your hate intensely BURNED
I should have found it shocking,
when I found out you were lying
Your grin exposed it all
You were going to make me fall
I simply waited-even as you slashed me
I craved to be free
Inside, all my depression-spilled out in screams and tears
For a second, your eyes reflected fears
You left me, clinging to life and bleeding...
Was your heart still human-and beating...?
I allowed myself to be merely defeated by you.
