broken heart

You resurrected me just to

rip my heart out and

smash it to pieces

No one was surprised it was made of glass

I could see my reflection in my

lifeless heart as we

stood over it-

broken, distorted by the

cracks you made

It reminded me of my cracked CD,

my shattered mirror

I guess this is my seven years of bad luck
 

It caught the sunlight,

the glass casting a rainbow

onto the blood stained floor

Blood the color of candlelight

and rose petals and

things that break easily

Made of sad stories

and romance movies and

forget-me-nots growing out of letters to old crushes

You watched it spread,

seeping out of the shattered heart,

on to your pristine floor,

never stained before,

what an honor
 

Glass crystals were in your hands,

the hands, the hands, the hands that

destroyed me but the hands

that I needed more than anything to be

interlocked with mine

because then

I could be

ok

Because everything else disappears

when I’m looking at you

It’s all raindrops,

running down

the car window and you’re

the whole entire ocean below and

I can’t hold on to the steering wheel and I’m

swerving and falling and I

Can’t

Hold

On

I’m

Falling

Into

The blue

But I’m not going to drown because

I’m already a corpse

A dead eyed girl with a shattered heart who’s good at playing pretend

Dead, dead until

until I touch the water

Until I hear your voice,

until I see you,

Until I touch you,

until I fall in
