Crucified, she prepared my demise,
like she was planning a tea party
securing the path that fate would take me
destroying every last ounce of hope,
for a better life I had harbored.
She labored over my last moments
pain stackingly making sure that I was,
no longer whole
She looked me deep in the eyes and said,
that she no longer loved me
I climbed up onto the chair she set up for me
put the rope securely around my broken heart
and kicked the chair out from under my own feet.
If she was going to watch me die,
I would save some of my dignity
She stood there watching me gasp for breath
but did nothing to ease the pain she had caused
Instead she repeated the words,
those five words that caused the final wound
"I dont love you anymore"
she turned around and walked squarely out of my life
or what was left of it anyway

Thank you... I know i should nt but its really hard and i like yor poem too.

This is a heartbreaking poem! I really felt like I was standing there in that room with you while this was going on - this is very well written, although from what I know "painstakingly" is one word not two. My favorite part was the tying the noose around your heart - creative and very fitting!

This is very painful Criss. The fact that love hurts so badly is haunting but it does reveal a certain reality. Life ain't fair! Not at all. Sometimes we give our all and get smacked in the face for doing so. It's hard to go back to love when you escaped with a thin portion of your heart remaining. This is exceptional. My oh my! I could see and feel every single word. Damn! Great musing!
Always ♥

Well. This is grueling. Hard as it is, there will be space for something far more redeeming.
You voiced an 'ache' for many with this lovely simple piece!
I like the approach and the natural spilling of
thought.
as from me...
typo/oopsies corrections:
destroying, securely,squarely

lol yeah... my spelling sucks... I actually wrote this in my sleep one night I woke up and wrote it out and just put it here the way it was there.. so it probably needs to be revised... I should have checked for spelling.
thank you!

Love could also be a good thing. But it is a two way street. If both sides of the street are no being travelled, than someone gets their heart broken.
There is a saying, "The one who loves the least, has the upper hand".

Heart-hugs hon, yes, sometimes love can literally crucify us, I'll spare you my rambling but your poem spoke volumes of sadness with pain that was felt.
Many Blessings and may the healing time begin.
Love and Light
