A Cry for Help

She kept you bottled up
Kept you out of her mind as much as possible
But somehow you managed to creep back in
And torture her innocent dreams

She managed to not think of you
To go entire days without a single memory
Yet you forcefully pushed yourself back into her life
And ripped apart her already broken heart

You stole her heart when you left
You cheaply mowed away at her very being
How can one person be so cruel?
How can you not feel any remorse?

Did you really love her?
Did you honestly appreciate what she lost for you?
Or did you simply have your fun?
Then toss her aside like an old, tattered shirt

You had an angel
You held her tight in your arms
Then you took away her halo
And shattered her wings

She loved for the first time
Truly, Deeply, Madly
You stood on her emotions
And drowned her in a pool of tears

She would’ve given you everything
Sun on a rainy day, stars on a cloudy night
But you took her for granted
And then you shut her out

She gave you everything, so many opportunities
To come back
To reignite the fire within her heart
To kick start her aching soul

Instead you joked and tricked
You played games with her fragility
You gave her a breathe of hope
Then punched at her heart until she was totally winded

How could you expect her not to hurt?
Not to suffer the way she did?
Six months and the pain is just as sharp
Just as damaging

She’s so scared now
Absolutely terrified of falling so far again
So much so, she’d rather be alone
By herself, for as long as she can.
