A Tale of My Deepest Sorrow

Laying here in bed, i can't sleep to save my life 
Remembering that day and that night
My ex left me cold turkey
No remorse and swift was she
I guess like her zodiac sign..
a scorpio ...she slowly crept up on me
Waiting to sting
And break every promise she ever made,
But that was nothing new to her,
as i already did foresee 
In past events i saw how she abandoned things
 time and time again
Like the Guinea pigs she once loved
 is now to her probably a distant memory like me
My dutch mistress...
Every time i think of her now i feel butchered in sorrow
Like waking from a nightmarish dream
Being left at the airport was merely a portion of what she did inside of me
I suppose now it still and will always fuel my fire
Of someone who broke everything i desired
Black webs hold now my shattered pieces together 
And though; as it may be, tainted with bitter sorrow
Its twice as strong as it was then,...just maybe a little more hollow
Without regret now..
Do i tell those of whom find my poem of my yet deepest sorrow

Justin, the lines are expressing a spontaneous overflow of powerful emotion. I feel the poem running through my veins. Great write though cathartic
