Unclean

The words cut deep Like an earthquake Carving a ragged ravine through my soul " It's over " she screams Tearing my heart out seam by seam Nothing left inside but a hollow hole Where a vibrant love once did reside. Now the need for a rock to crawl under A desparate need to hide Away from destroyed hopes and crumbling dreams This barren shell is no place to dwell For a soul who cherishes love More than your created hell Leaving me unclean, tucked away unseen Just another lover has-been Broken and ashamed, just myself to blame I lock myself away, away with the pain Wondering if I can ever go outside again To show my face disgraced And a heart misplaced Maybe it's time to vanish Without a trace.
