********************************

it's like you can

feel

your heart

break

your stomach

drops

through the ground

straight to hell

which you're

sure

is a better place

than this

swallow the

lump

in your throat

blink back the

tears

ignore the

all-consuming

pain

perhaps it was a

rejection

you cared

too much

about someone who

cared

too little

or maybe it was

cheating

stolen kisses

in parking lots

so you wouldn't

see

it could've been

words

that sliced your

heart up

the way you

slice

your

skin

but whatever it

was

makes you want to

hide

to cry yourself

to sleep

you can feel

your heart

tear

in

two

and you

wonder to yourself

just briefly

before it all

falls apart

how the

hell

you're going to

put yourself

back together

this

time
