Severed

Severed

You have severed my heart,
Forcefully ripped it apart.
Bleeding.

My tears, how they flow,
Covering the ground below.
Motionless.

Unable to defend,
The demons tear at my skin.
Horrified

Hanging by a thread,
I fear the noises in my head.
Desecrating.

Left for dead on battled ground,
Where laughter is the only sound.
I die.
