YOUR HEART WAS KING

When I met you

Your life began

But soon

Mine ended


You asked for my flawless heart

I gave it to you without thinking twice

I protected you against your weaknesses

And swung off shame that was reeking

From your highly troubled past

I fought your battles and breathed life

To your weak lose lungs

My green touch brought the world

To your rickety bony feet


I embraced your wildest fantasies

Led you towards the land of ecstasies

I cried your tears and injected your pain

Upon my spotless shy heart

Always giving a smile in all that hurt

I adorned you with every bit of me

Each of my kiss showed you how to live

Each of my heartbeat showed you how to breathe


Now let’s walk to the nightmarish memory lane

When you first brought her home

That day you completely crashed my heart

I cried tears of the sea

From that tick my body grew thin

Episodes of naïve self delusions

From the pain and stress

Of ‘the return’ to your past life


Sharing our bed with your catch

Was a humiliation bomb that

Exploded in my poor face

I took a moment to absorb

That painful energy that roamed

In the atmosphere rubbing roughly

Against my heart, sipping my pride

Eating away my muscular faith


Still I stood by you in your endeavors

I believed you were somebody

Worthy to deposit my future into

I was wrong as my tumbling joy

Came trembling down

Erecting a thunder in my heart

As the frightening huge pain

Punched the glow out of me  


As you again brought an extra

Of your catch home

Splendid, like a model

With glittering gold

Upon her long thin neck

Diamonds hang in her ears

You stood so low

Using all our savings

For such a discounted thing


Still this love was too strong so pain

Grew horns and attacked in the wicked

Of ways, his sharpened horns slashed

Across my body to where my heart hide

My lungs refused to breath and my eyes

Hurled in shock as the wordless misery

Stole my fluffy fantasies and dark naughty

Smoke wrapped up all my ecstasies


My heart was king

My heart was your pride


When I met you

Your life began

But soon

Mine ended
