How can a single human being
make another human being hurt
so bad that they wish death upon them self?
I do not know,
but you have done it.
You have torn me apart.
I can feel my heart pounding,
but my chest is empty.
I see you through these scarred, disillusioned eyes.
You are cold.
You are so damn cold,
my skin is churning with anger.
I am the one on the cutting board,
And you are the one with the knife.
You were never nice.
You hated me with the evil pride you had.
I wish that you were still here with me,
so that I can have you hold me,
caress me with your chipped nails,
so that you can degrade me,
build yourself even higher.
I am sober,
but I can feel my head spinning.
Author notes
After each stanza, I added a small metaphor. I don't like the last one much, but the others are okay.
