Burning pain in the pit of my heart
Try so hard to push it away but the inferno keeps burning despite all that I do. Sticks and stones ya they break bones but words they hurt my soul. You break me down till I’m but a shattered remnant of who I once was. Your words they cut like knives ripping the heart from my chest I lie bleeding on your floor. You smile and kick me some more. Why do I love? All it brings me is pain, what do you want from me? My heart? It is in your hands, beating, burning, bleeding for you. My soul? It is crying for you, dying knowing this is not how things should go. Torn and broken, wanting only to be whole in you. My mind, it is lost for you, screaming for you to come back, for you to love her again. She cries out in the night for you to console her. But you drive her away with the things that you say. Till all she desires is death. To be free from the pain that is love. The pain that is hate.
