Open Link Night ~ Week 131
Questioning heart
Tell me my love
When you ripped my heart open
And I bled tears
Did it bathe your wounds?
Or heal your scars?
When you painted my soul
with the black ink of betrayal
did a rainbow appear
in the mirror of your soul?
Please, sweetheart,
Do tell me
when you pierced my self esteem
with shrapnel of indifference
Did your lips taste sweetness?
or did your heart skip a beat?
Did you perchance feel a thrill
when you shattered my fragile anima
with your harsh silence?
Tell me my love
Did the keening of my lonely soul
turn into lullaby
When you laid yourself down to sleep?
Pray, tell me
Did you feel victorious?
With every promise you broke
And with each lie you uttered
Did you settle some score?
I so want to know,
Did it make you happy
To erase the memories I thought we made?
Or was it just a cake walk
To never give, but just take?
When I begged for scraps
Did it give you a high?
Or did peace dawn on you
When you heard me sigh?
Wonder if it ever bothered you darling
the mind games you played?
Leading me on with your worldly wise ways?
Kindly answer, for I do need to know
Why does my heart still ache without you
and life seems hollow?
