Scared

He stared at my scar with disgust 
And that was when I knew that he did not really love me from the start
I put my hand on his shoulder 
As I thought of how we went through heaven and hell together 

This made me very unhappy 
But I knew that it was for the best
And when the time comes
My other half will join me
Not for better, but for worse 

Because I will drag his soul to my dungeon 
And lock it up
So that he will never stop loving me
And will never hurt me
Like the heart that got misplaced 

It would be my center piece 
From which, I will feed my obsession
