Love

Clenchin the blanket tight, my hearts ripped to pieces tonight and my doing- ruined it, tore it to pieces leaving acid over my eyes so I couldn't see you walk away and now that my eyes rinsed, I see clear as day, your footsteps walking away further and further until you've faded while my shadow contrasts reality. Though it's blue it all turns grey and blackness creeps in the lonely hour when I lay here with only a congested mind wondering how you are- but I don't dare ask because this hurt i've caused leeches, it burns the skins vulnerability and though ive covered up the same scar, it still jabs, piercing like the knife that went through my heart when you ended it because, I was not ready to lose you, the one I said I loved.
