Hearts Defeat

Never again

Tear stained pillow lay still

Heart ripping in two

Headache churning in circles

The battle of logic is won

Slow drips of blood follow

Red streaked across the wall

Icy pain escaping the eyes

Finally coming to an end

My heart falls in defeat

No more beats to defend

Head fading into the darkness

Body curled in pain

Sobs escaping through scarlet tears

I finally reach release

As my hand falls to the pit

Heart closed in darkness

Streams of blood reach their end

No breath left

Love forgotten
