Torn Heart

I will never get my heart back.

I gave it to you years ago

But you didn't handle it with care.

You'd shoot it with a shotgun and then put it back together with band-aids.

A temporary fix until you'd do it again.

You'd shoot me over and over again until there was nothing left to hurt.

You drained the life from my body,

Crushing my most vital organ.

You would sink your claws into it

And pull with all you might.

You'd relish the sound of my screams

As you killed me.

I don't feel anything anymore.

I used to feel with my heart

But now it's gone.

They say that some people will always have a place in your heart,

But not you.

You've taken my heart, ripped it to shreds,

Tossed it to the dogs,

Crushed it a million times over.

My heart,

It's broken.

I'll never get it back.

It'll never be mine again.
