'Alone With My Heart'
The love which
once stood
sublime
had been broken
Realizing
this time
it's real
As I flew
across the floor
with the final blow
you threw
Making sure
I understood
you despised
my very existence
And if you could
determine my fate
you would
by killing me
Sitting in silence
'alone with my heart'
w a i t i n g
Knowing you
meant business
and would tear
my world apart
This day
would be
my last
of this I was sure
As I huddled
in the corner
like a shattered
piece of glass
Praying hard
and fast
for protection
Hoping it
would come
before you
returned
Then I heard...
the door slam.
