It’s never ceases
To amaze my broken heart
Men who use knives
To cut me into pieces
Then complain about the art
Made from their wounding lies

This probably about you.

wanted.
You promised me you’d stay
After all your own heartache
You knew what you wanted
And nothing would get in the way
Both our hearts at stake
I was what you wanted
But soon came the day
You’d admit it was all fake
I was never what you wanted

hollow posterity.
You told me you’d follow
You adored me, you assured
Struck you like lightning
But your words were mere hollow
Skeletons left in the dirt
At the first sighting
Of posterity

Distant hunter.
You say you meant your words
The ones you used to string
Me along in a fantasy
Called my call outs absurd
Promised I’m still your darling
All while planning your leave
Growing the gap
Wider than the miles
Insisted it was just my anxiety
Set my heart in a trap
Coaxing me along with a smile
Quietly left me alone to bleed
-
karmic loop.
You’ll spend lifetimes
Looking for me
Stuck in your head
Haunting love rhythm and rhymes
Body unable to fully feel
Only sees on ecstasy
Moments unfelt
Wishing you had dealt
With tender hearts gently
