Mentally Destroyed by you

A broken heart. A broken life

Mentally Destroyed By You

Mentally destroyed by you.

My mind, my bones, fractured, broken.

Bruises faded but stay in my mind.

Heart aches, hurts

like a free-flowing river—that is my blood.

One moment I feel happy,

next, good turns to dust.

You are gone from this life,

yet I still cry with etched pain.

It’s in my brain, I can’t understand

how can a person can inflict all that pain.

You died—that was the easy way out.

I am in limbo, left to ask why.

From 16 to 30 my life a mass of hurt

Just for loving a wicked wicked man

  • so sad

  • Today I feel this way. To have given and given so much of my heart and soul into someone, just for them to throw me away like trash. I'm sorry if this is your pain and thank you for writing out a piece of mine and giving me a chance to read your words. Wishing you well.
