As I walk around these bushes of my sorrows,
Seeing these dry empty trees which resembles my heart and soul.
My skin crawls as I hear these hysterical laughs of these empty branches whilst they seem to giggle at the void you left in my heart.
They awaken these demons screaming in my mind telling me I should have died that night.
That me being out of sight would've ended all those sighs and cries.The grass that used to caress my feet and soothes my soul now feels like broken glasses and thorns tearing up my tiny skin.
You've kept me on the edge of my seat since day one but you just left me stranded with all this love.
You didn't even think twice when you pulled the rug under my feel.
How you giggled when you saw me fall face flat.
Girl, your love destroyed me.Like a lion in the jungle ogling at it's prey from a certain corner,
You stood therr and watched me bleed for your love.
I kneeled before you like you were my God but girl you showed me no mercy.
Your voice, the things you uttered still rings in my ears.
I loved you so sincerely and so dearly and you broke me to my very core.
Babe, your love destroyed me.It's how you smiled and seemed smitten when you said her name.
How you made her live in my head, huh.
And mother nature seems to be a constant reminder of what love has brought me 'coz every turn I take takes me back to a time when your love destroyed me.
But maybe it was never truly your fault.
Nonetheless, you're still so beautiful you surpass all your faults and flaws.
But babe your love destroyed me.
