Last Words

"Don't talk to me!"
Those were our last words.
Little did he know I was destroyed,
Don't worry,
I'm only dying.
My heart was screaming
Lungs burning
It never ended.
The feeling of water and fire,
Still in my chest,
Or was it gasoline?
Our hearts were time bombs.
Ticking ticking and ticking,
Waiting for that final blow.
"Don't talk to me!"
Little did I know,
That when i left you alone,
You'd leave everyone for good.

A very touching, and I hope, not a real life poem.
