You play with my heart as you pull the loosened thread of my solo heartbreak,
Every pull making me fall farther,
Your caring mask shattered while I fall faster,
Fall into a damned abyss of loneliness,
She controls you with acts of violence,
Causing pain and death as she treads,
She shakes off everyone’s pain and problems,
Only caring of herself,
and shedding a tear for attention.
The tear falls leaving a land mark in time,
Holding out for sympathy,
But waking cold to see no one is there to listen to cried screams of abandonments.
