Rapped Heart

You ripped my heart out
You used it as a cushion without consideration

You ripped my heart out
You left me in despair without a care

You ripped my heart out
You used it to keep yourself occupied and took me for a joyride

You ripped my heart out
You left be wondering about this ambivalent relationship, something I could 
never grip

You ripped my heart out
You used my hopes from the get-go, made it seem like such a natural flow

You ripped my heart out
You left me with anger, doubt, sadness, hurt something I can't construe as 
you left me the way 
that I had found you

You might as well of ripped my heart out - you wore it out

A poem coming from a place of darkness into a place of light where healing may yet take place and give readers a chance to look inside their own hearts. You judged the weight of your words well and got the length right too. Best regards David in NZ

This is so well written, I can totally feel the emotion behind it. This is my favourite part: "You left me with anger, doubt, sadness, hurt something I can't construe as you left me the way that I had found you."
