Standing at the well of shame.
Ready to wash you from my mind.
To forget all about you.
You're name.
You're smile.
You're scent.
Ready to get my heart back.
As it sits at the bottom of the well.
Drownding in the water or pitch black.
I cast my net of retrieval.
It comes up empty.
Why won't you just let go.
Set me free from you forever.
I cast it again.
Hoping it will pull up my heart.
Shriveled from sitting in it's own tears for so long.
Black and blue from all of you're abuse and games.
Still it sits at the bottem crying a beat of sorrow.
Crying for you.
Knowing you dont want it.
It sings a sad tune within it's beats.
Screaming you're name from this bottemless pit.
Can you hear it?
I hope it haunts you in you're sleep

Powerful emotions displayed is the piece.

I love the last line best, it's like a kick in the bum which obviously this person deserves so much if you had to write a poem about it.
