What's Mine

A heart crafted of porcelain- now cracked all the way through. What once was smooth and flawless- is no longer bright and new. Edges made to cut with- curves and crevices unsmoothed. This is what I have become- and it's all because of you. Constellations in my eyes- but they'll turn into tearfall. They'll trace my cheeks down to my neck- then freeze and turn to snowfall. That fire in my chest - which once did burn so endless... it struggles to make light now- all because you are repentless. See, you were never sorry- you hurt me... left me for dead. I could beg you more to listen- but now I'll hold my breath instead. For I've bellowed my lungs out- trying to get you to care. But now I know, despite my pleads- that you'll never be there. Present when you need me- but when I need you, you are gone. For once your needs are met- you're oh so quick to break our bond You took a thing of beauty- and you stole it for your own. You used it till you broke it - and deemed it "better off alone". You've got all you could get from me- then cast away remains. You claim you are so grateful- So why oh, why throw me away away? You snatch me up, but one more time- when you see my fire relight. But now this flame's for ME- you can no longer take what's mine.
