Blunt Instrument

All I ever wanted was your love.

I had no idea how high the cost would be.

They say love is pain and with you, it was literal.

Some scars still etched into my flesh and others engraved much deeper.

I didn’t think much of myself to begin with but you chiseled away with a blunt instrument, what was left of me.
