somebody's dungeon

I curse the creation
of this stupid box,
the technology that allowed
you,
to weave your way
into my heart.


In between the flood
of tears
that won't stop coming,
the heartache
that won't stop hurting,
and the slow destruction
of me...

all there is
is pain...

moments of excruciating
soul wrenching agony
with the screams of
"WHY"
echoing in my brain.

The minor pauses
for sanity, and calm
are coming less,
and less.

Every word you ever
said
is stuck wandering aimless
in my head.

They rip at my heart,

a heart that's already
on the brink,
of shutting down...

completely.

And...I curse my heart
for being weak,
for falling,
for loving,
for allowing the take down
of the walls
that protected my fragile
existence.

Keeping me safe
in the gentle balance,
where love was absent,
but I could breathe.

Here, there is no air,
the absence of love
has created a vacuum,
and the rose will wither,
fade, and die...

all because you picked
the rose,
from the flower bed
that kept her safe,
and abandoned her...
to barren soil,
dark shadows,
and death.

I love this!! I could feel tha emotion when i read it. And it truly is a heartbreaking write Hope you feel better.

So no more hiding all your pain, you deserve a new start. That's why i'm closing myself away, this is a message from your heart.

Thanks for reading and responding. I've been away, and didn't realize how much I'd missed writing.
