Broken. Lustful. Lost
From the love that once was-
Fireworks booming throughout the night:
Reminding. Telling. Knowing our love was
Right.
Shot. Trust. Betrayed
Out of love to another-
Compassion lives but not to me:
Showing why I meant
We.
Ruined. Tenderness. Moved
Away to kill me.
My soul, heart and everything removed:
Life sucked out but given
Not to me.
Broken. Lustful. Lost
From the love that once was-
Physical, intimate and right:
Killed off by a demon.
A cheat.
