I am writing this because I find myself swimming in a swamp of sombre sadness. 

As my body caught flames you stood still and tame. 

And still it’s strange that I loved you, and even if all you brought was pain. 

I still feel the same. 

 

I love your eyes that light up with lies. 

I’ve slit my wrists to see your smile that’s filled with spite 

I rolled in endless fire so I could feel your cold touch. 

Sold my soul and hoped the pennies could buy your stone cold fake gold heart. 

 

Broke my own bones because I thought it meant getting close to almost, getting the chance to grow old with you 

Spent every day and night of my natural life chained to pipes because that’s only the time I could get alone with you

 

You still left me when I needed you. 

I hope I never lose the bruises and burns you left on my body. 

But I really hope I lose the scar you left on my heart. 

 

Sincerely 

Your love
