My Heart




My heart is tormented with thoughts of you...
    Bound by thorns and animosity

Its held together with tape, Which I try to coat with HATE
    It makes the heart stronger you see

My heart Bleeds every day you are inside
    Bringing painful images to mind
The stiches are torn apart when you walk through my heart
    You always had a way with scissors

My heart, surrounded by barbwire, yet you invade....unaware
It took awhile to weave this chainmail suit covering my heart
    But even chainmail has holes

My heart screams when you dance apon it
    I use surgical thread to sew up the wounds from your shoes
    I never noticed your toes before, I don't like them

My heart, abused when you droped it to the ground
I've glued together the shattered pieces
I think a few are missing and upside down

My heart crys because I can't forget.
I put up traps to try an catch you....
    Instead the hunters now the prey

I am like an addict who knows its wrong but has to have it.

My heart consumed with passion and love so deep........
    To forget you would be Heaven
    To lose you would be Hell
