With a heavy heart,

I walked away

From you,

From it all,

For this

I had taken the fall.

With a broken heart,

My chest burned,

Almost as if

There were sharp glass shards

Inside me,

Stabbing me,

Deeper into my flesh

By the second.

With a heart

I felt

All these feelings…

_All of them_,

No matter how

Painful.

With a longing heart,

I yearned for you

And I missed your touch.

Without a heart

Is how I now stand,

Broken, numb,

And empty

Without you.
