The Love of Ashes
By a lachrymist
I left myself closed off from everything. Never able to bare the pain from whatever came my way. But with her dear kind words I thought differently. Thinking her attenions were true and kind. But it was all a lie, I was just another insect for her web. With my guard down the wounds were to deep for me, and now im crying for some sort of releaf. With closed eyes bringing on darker moments I lay alone in the darkness. Im Trying to forget the love felt but reflections of you haunt and tortment me. I torn myself open once again for you, Inviting, and calling for some kind of sign. But you turned away, leaving me empty, leaving me broken and lost inside myself. You wanted more, beckoning for some sort of compassion. But you lied, and nothing can be said now. I opened myself to you, and you left me bleeding. For one sweet moment I thought we were whole, that someone really cared, that something really mattered. Now Im here, choking on my next breathe. Waiting for something to come my way. But maybe I should just turn and run away So I shut myself off, and walked back within the dark. For the damage has been done and now I can't go on.
