My heart is oblivious to the hate in my mind

You who betrayed me and left me alone
Has your heart turned to stone?
I trusted you and I shared my secrets and life
Yet you carelessly cut my heart with a knife
You'll never know the gashes you've inflicted on my heart
I use the blood as paint for my mind's canvas to creat art

The battle between my emotions have yet to be won
The clash of hatred and love has begun
I hate you every day beacuse you threw me away
And I miss you at night because you're not by my side
I cry for weeks because the agony just keeps growing
And my heart's blood won't stop flowing
I know I need to stitch up my wounds
But those cuts are all that's left of you

I keep hoping that you'll come back with a needle and thread
And for the first time in a while,
I'll have someone beside me when I go to bed
I pray you might hear my plea or my cries of pain
Why do you not care that I'm going insane
I'm sick of this ache in my heart that I live with day to day
I wake up to a world tainted and gray
Does this not bother you that hell is all I know because of you
Do you not have any shame in what you do?

I struggle to keep the battle at bay
But you still haunt my mind everday
You use to hold my collapsed body when I cried
I used to think that i would not be alone when I died
You've torn the happiness out of me 
And slowly, with great agony, the life is leaving too
I wonder if you know that when I die I'm thinking of you 

Please, just know that I still love you
But my hate still boils like a witch's brew   
And my heart still bleeds as I wait for you to show up with your needle and thread

    This is a great poem! The emotion that comes through on this one comes through really strong. Some of the rhymes seem off, such as lines 5 and 6 and then lines 15-17, and line 28 doesn't have a rhyming line, but overall it is really great. I like how you referred to one of the earlier lines for your finishing line, it worked well to sum the piece up. Great job and good luck in the contest!
