Alone in love I die

Still recalling the way you’d speak my heart,

under all light where my darkness became whole.

Bleeding this deformed soul my tears speak,

as love becomes the very reason I want to die.

You looked at me once like I was something,

now not even a memory to your mind my pain.

I knew not what love was until you showed me,

how to grasp the feelings as life makes her way.

Heaven is closed to me, hell won’t take my calls,

just this image of destiny crying inside.

No amount of tears to wash away my lies,

bloody arms of life begging for death.

I am nothing to you, nothing to even say,

and as I slice my wrists I realize I’m not loved.
