Tale Tale Heart
Sunday, July 21, 2013
It's amazing, the capacity a heart has to absorb hurtand yet keep beating
I can feel it, inside me. This aching quivering mass
thump thump, thump thump
banging a painful tattoo against my chest
I imagine it bloody
raw gaping wound pulsating in rhythm to the cadence of my tears
a sad dance of quiet despair, hidden from sight
I am walking wounded
so numb and yet so raw
every nerve ending screaming outloud
what quietly is killing my heart
If i could erase the memories
scribble you off my mind
i'd eradicate you completely without a second thought
Instead I just go on living
with your crimes inside my head
my heart a living legacy to love won and lost
and I wonder how you live with you
how easily you forgot
