Howling Within

Here is the problem,
this is what I see,
I was alone,
about to do me,
then you reached out 
and dragged your claws across me,
when you had your fill,
you threw me out, said was free,
but my heart starves,
so how can that be,
you left in me a poison
that burns don't you see
and now I'm alone,
but will never be free.
