It burns when you touch me

like claws tearing.

It hurts when you talk to me

nails in my skin.

I can’t stand watching you

Stumbling, falling

It tears out my heart

My blood flows over your hands.

I wish I was blind

I wish I was deaf

Dumb to your figure.

Erased from your shadow.

I wish you were scribbled from my life,

Like black ink over an angel

Tainted, disformed.

That’s what you are to me.

You squeeze my heart in your talons

While its beating falters

warm blood runs like rain from my eyes

Splattering onto the cold concrete below us.

With your scavenger beak you prey on my heart

Pulling its meat with your beak

Tearing out strips of my life.

In darkness I wish you’d fade

I wish you’d disappear from me.

Why are you still here?

Why do you torment me?!

What have I done to deserve this Hell?

This vile disgrace to the human soul.

Demon! You play with my heart

You defile my flesh

You take everything away from me.

My bloody tears, they drown me now

as you crush into my heart

The pulse, itstops now

Lights burst forth in my eyes

I am deaf,

I am dumb,

I am blind of your form.

Now you are nothing to me.

Nothing… but a memory.
