War of Hearts
Hold onto me
Don’t let go
Grip these veins with fingers,
stop the world from coming out of me
Watch my tears flow
Don’t look at me like that
I still love you , I whisper to the wind
Hold my wrist
They hurt
All the times you just let me go
I remember who you used to be
A line from my poetry
Books so dusty
They hold no value
Except to the writer
Of these dreams
I love you
But your killing me
I cannot force my air from lungs
Or the screams from a choked up throat
I hate who we have become
This is a battle of wits
A war invested in our hearts
I’m willing to fight
Yet you intend on Shooting me down
Pick up your shovel
Dig me a unforgiving hole
Place my limp body
On the threshold
Cover me in dirt
I’m already covered in guilt
Ashes to ashes
Let this be a lesson
For two eyes to see
You waged a war against me
I intend on surviving
