Tattered

No matter how much you rinse off your hands,
You can never erase what's on my mind,
I cant stand those hands,
The same hands that held her her hands,
I badly need your touch,
But the pain in my heart is too much,
It would have been essential,
For I to have amnesia,
I wouldn't remember the way you smell,
I wouldn't see your fake smile,
It's driving me crazy,
That she was so lucky,
I cant let go,
I cant move on,
Am tattered,
Am wasted,
Am so lonely,
Am scared,
My body is so shaky
