On This Heart a Scar Is Formed

On this heart a scar is formed If you have love, why are you asking for more? Some people do not have what you have. In these days of every possibility, you should be grateful; But still you want, so go and break, take and be glad. Happy inside your fictional love; Make me up a memory of feeling, because I am so empty. You treat love like it is just another drug, But you treat it with such disdain, because you have so many. Take me out of the food chain; I can no longer be love’s play thing. I have given all I can to this cause. Just leave me to rot, I will no longer be making. I have seen this love beast too many times, so no more. I am alone and happy, so why do I need your love? You are with someone again, so I will not complain. Cupid is a fool; he stuck me with you through only lust And all you ever gave to me in exchange for my love was pain. The ghost of me is all there is… And on this heart a scar is formed. The wish I had when I was a kid, has shown me that I can take no more. (C)2016 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
