it cuts deeply
the feel of that cold material
on the smooth surface
running it down
gliding it across
see the dark liquid flow
cleanly, smoothly, flowing
it doesn’t hurt as much, you say
it doesn’t hurt at all
this pain inside in worse
if you could gorge it out, you would
that sinking feeling of loss
don’t have his revenge this way
it was not intended
but the explanations fall apart as they
fall on deaf ears and a
closed heart with a
broken mind
so your ears are shut
your heart is hard
and your mind is in pieces
pick up those shards, you say
but he grind them instead
you leave more in his way
he picks up several and toys with them
teasing you, he holds them to his heart
hurting you, he throws them down
breaking you, he crushes them all
we can, you say, we can
just stop all these and come back
he’s broken, you’re broken
let us heal together
