I close my eyes, and see your face.
I try to shake away the image.
But your face I can't replace.
Pain fills my chest and tears brim my eyes.
I blink them away,
How could I have believed your lies.
Like the flame of a candle, my Jealousy burned,
How was she right for you?
I had so much to learn.
Her kiss must have been sweeter, her touch brings more pleasure.
I gave you my heart, healthy and pure.
You gave back a broken heart, filled with pain that nothing could measure.
I glance at the scars that crossed my wrist.
I remember my few moments of escaping the pain.
The blade brought strength, numbness, and bliss.
I close my eyes again, this time I see my face.
I try to shake away the image.
The pain shows clearly, pain that will never erase.
