#dashed - Hello Poetry

I'm pressed and stressed, my Heart Pounds, echoes across the far-flung corners of the world Where you stole away my heart, then Dashed it against the ice of your own, Beyond hope of recognition. I wish there was a chance That a small fragment of me still clings to your cuff, that you might still carry a part of me with you.

I'm pressed and stressed, my Heart Pounds, echoes across the far-flung corners of the world Where you stole away my heart, then Dashed it against the ice of your own, Beyond hope of recognition.

"I could actually, win," I said to myself. Then reality hit me in the face. And I lost, before I could even try.

We were in a moment static, woven within each others oceans, Then she spoke "Your such a good friend, In that moment I sank beneath the waves of her eyes, settling in the graveyard of others sunken hearts..

Hardly seems real Staring straight, eyes dilated slightly Finding that the back of my throat Is constricting Unhindered The light is shining through Its burning up this trash That clouds my better judgement And I'm left choking on fumes Just one word too far it seems I just watched you dash my deepest dreams With a callous disregard reserved For the ignorant Now I stand before you here Stupefied Everything I once held dear You've broken in my hands Left speechless Motionless You know I tried to mend every loose end But there's no coming back from this Left empty You trashed my only plan The words we held onto Are falling from my grip as the cracks begin to show The reflection Of the truth i used to know You're every little seam that deep inside of me Kept the rest from showing We unravel Even as you start to scream, traitor to the cause, I guess that's how you see me Then that's what I have to become And you don't notice What we've both become Nothing we loved changed at all It's us with wandering hearts And now we've strayed too far I won't go on
