Broken

I’m broken
Not too much has been spoken
Of my alliance
Towards the silence
Evening corrupts me
Bleeding disrupts me
Contemplating the ending
Of relationships bending
I see sours grapes
Beyond her drapes
Of her eyes
In disguise
I have not feelings of remorse
For it was a broken horse
That brought me into play
When she has left to say
“Not another day to live
With our hearts to give
Extra passion disconnects
When we intersect
Blowing across the wayward
Sun bellows out radiance towards
The hollowness of our distance
That was in time ruthless
We can’t find our way
Too much in dismay
Overtly its under wraps
Our love has found its caps”
Power within the words
I found heartless swords
Banging against my head
As if I was dead
Being that it may
I wish to be that way
But along she never displayed
Hope to see life conveyed
In love’s little capsule
We left without a soul
And nothing she says can save
My broken heart is decayed
Never to be found again
Never to beat, never to begin
I’m broken;
She said so long
I’m taken
And now time seems to drag
In some fashion
To last, never to brag
Covering elastration
Of my heart to snag
Covering times endless battle
Of broken entities settled
Like I have entered
Into the realm diverted
Boasting she elicits pains
From all angles, domains  
Now time slows to a crawl
Like I feel nothing at all
But the shards that crossed my path
Entering into my seconds of wrath
I’m just saying
I’m broken -
Long before she said goodbye
