Love Consumed
My heart is torn asunder,
her words echo in my soul like thunder.
As she turns her back and walks away,
I feel my body start to sway.
I drop to my knees and whisper her name,
knowing in my heart I will never be the same.
Her actions bring an almost physical pain,
every moment is a battle to remain sane.
But I know that this fight with myself is hopeless,
so I let go and slip into welcoming darkness.
