A Hallowed Out Heart

Turtles hide inside a shell Oysters, clams and crabs as well When their existence is no more A hallow shells lies on the floor Empty and decaying fast Soon it will no longer last Washed away from sandy shores Lost forever more and more Pieces of them everywhere No one remembers they were there Like my heart that was forgotten When you did your manly "sluttin" Pieces of me washed away From your whirlwind of decay Waves of heartache every night Splashed a darkness in the light That used to glow inside my eyes Until they saw your "sick" surprise Leaving me a hallowed out Shell that you forgot about Poemprophet Robin Davis
