Heartbreak Once Ate Half of Me

i lit fire in my chest each time it blazes, i breathe blue smoke, maybe heartbreak is another death that burn us alive. i make sour song out my voice when i cry, i slip off from the bed while asleep & heave myself to the wall. i have known life do not always bring you everything, but i know the taste of heartbreak. there are ways love will break you into emptiness, & ways we struggle to carry it on our shoulders.
