It is as if someone shoved their way into your chest,
their fist clenches around your heart,
they purposefully twist their hand,
the pain feeling much worse,
you feel a great tear,
and watch in horror as it is ripped out,

they stomp on the organ.

but instead of dying,

you'll keep on living,

a forever gaping hole there,
knowing that oh so painful feeling.
the constant reminder of how you once had a beating heart,
but now all that is left is the emptiness in your chest.

Only the wound upon your very skin does not fade to a scar,
instead it continuously slowly bleeds
and bleeds.

Until there is nothing left.
