Its true, love does hurt

Broken never looked so beautiful on you

Held under water, I was drowning in someone else's sorrow

If you show me your feelings, I'll show you my heart

Abuse was your way of showing love

Blood coursing down my now bruised body

Your hands became my necklace

But your words are what left my throat dry

Telling me you never really loved me hurt more than the black eye

Please just rip my shirt to shreds, I'm tired of wearing my heart on my sleeve

Sincerely, the naked poet
