Left To Die
My heart lies empty
its contents have been drained
You did that!
You came in as I slept
and dissected my body
Prying open my chest
revealing to your sick world my beautiful heart
With your rusty dagger you plunged it in deep
causing my sweetness and light to burst forth
Now I lay before you
a tangled mess
You and your cohort laugh over me
and dance your twisted dance
reveling in your handiwork
Knowing that you destroyed a life
That you helped create so long ago
