I Write Poetry
You take one side
And he takes the other
Ripping my heart in half
Blood soaking through the carpet
My body, laying
Broken and deadened
Just like my screams
How sweet is the wine
But my liver cries out
How much must it take
For my mind to forget?
A blade rips apart my skin
Drawing more crimson beauty
Hardly making the hell go away
My eyes can see through this
But what they see
They can never believe
So the windows to the soul
Are sewn shut
Never to be seen again
My ears are pounding
Like drums
And my tongue cannot form words
None since I am silenced
So I slice it off
Since it has no more use
The body lies
In a pool of blood
In a pool of tears
And broken love
All is destroyed
All is corrupted
Love can never happen again
And he takes the other
Ripping my heart in half
Blood soaking through the carpet
My body, laying
Broken and deadened
Just like my screams
How sweet is the wine
But my liver cries out
How much must it take
For my mind to forget?
A blade rips apart my skin
Drawing more crimson beauty
Hardly making the hell go away
My eyes can see through this
But what they see
They can never believe
So the windows to the soul
Are sewn shut
Never to be seen again
My ears are pounding
Like drums
And my tongue cannot form words
None since I am silenced
So I slice it off
Since it has no more use
The body lies
In a pool of blood
In a pool of tears
And broken love
All is destroyed
All is corrupted
Love can never happen again
