HANGING IN THERE she bats an eyelid,maybe two
nothing
get out of me
she screams somewhere inside her head
deep down where the blood ceases to flow
get the hell away from me
she knew it was there
right from the start
but she lied
everything will be okay
she thought then
then
now
things have changed
things change
you can't leave a bloodied arrow sticking out
through her stubborn heart forever
and not feel the pain
when she sees them
holding hands standing close
far away from her
she has to wrench that arrow out
before she drowns in all that worthless blood
his eyes meet hers
and they smile
she wants to push the hurt back in
and dissolve back into the girl
he knows
he doesn't know
how much she bleeds inside
for him
this can't be love
she is a fool
what does love know
love spurns me like hatred
if love is love
it doesn't love me
she closes her eyes
get lost
love
like a careless elbow
bent ever so slight
knocking the glass heart
off
what used to be a chip
so special
pleasure spiked with pain
someone had said
now lies smashed
in a thousand glorious bits
she feels it dig a bottomless pit
where her inner person
used to be
she was happy
life was her playground
till he came along
he was the one
who broke a little piece
of untouched heart
he did not know how
it hung upon his sleeve
how she pretended it still belonged to her
but he came back one day
with his other half
and decided to steal
the rest of that little heart
away  ¶ 11:33 AM
