i saw you

holding your heart

close to your chest

your eyes looked broken

i could see it


you've been toyed

manipulated

torn apart

to the point

it drew the life out of you


i took your hand

like Midas

our love was golden, beautiful

but it turned my heart to stone

i couldn't watch you die

little by little

piece by piece

everyday

i couldn't watch someone

fading away

i felt restrained

please don't take my sunshine away


i love you

he said

three words

i'd hoped to hear

i would never forget


let me go

he said


the three words

that broke me.
