Ruby Pieces.

You were beautiful.

It was all I could see.

Blinded by beauty, I didn't know what you would do to me.

I didn't know how your lips could lie,

I knew only they were mine.

I wish I'd known to fear the sparkle in your eye,

Knew how it would make me cry.

Your words continue to ring in my head,

The pain enough to wish I were dead.

You broke my chest,

and you've left me this mess.

My heart on the floor, shattered in ruby pieces,

And I'm trying to fit them back together,

but as my hand reaches,

I discover my heart is less,

Less than it used to be, leaving me in tears of distress.

My love, you broke my chest.

Your cruel eyes will not give me rest.

As I scramble to pick up the ruby pieces,

bleeding out of my heart,

your words are ceaseless.

Ringing as you've perfected the art,

on how to break a young girl's heart.
