Second-Hand Heart

a heart

broken abused

torn and used

shredded and bruised

shattered and fractured

torn out

stomped on 

please just take it

i can't use it anymore

it hurts too much 

burns with every touch

cries and drowns in sorrow 

the pain hurts too much

don't give it back

then i watch you

you take my heart

so tenderly 

with soft hands

you start to heal it

to heal me

i watch you

i  watch every movement

every touch

i watch you as you heal my heart

taking the broken pieces 

sew the wounds into love

and stitched me back to life 

with so much love

pffft

i wish 

you just tore me open no point pretending is there

you took my heart and stomped on it

destroying the shreds

my heart is turning to dust

and now i must go

i'm heartless now 

a gaping whole of destruction

i'm a monster now

but i'm a Beautiful Monster

heartless 

but still here

i howl at the moon

i howl my Bloodless Cry
