once...
The pain that’s left behind
Is worse than wounds
Although unable to see
The impact you have caused
It remains there…
Creeping…
And when I would all but forget
About this terrible ache
It comes back and strikes me
Like a venomous snake
The heart that was once whole
Now shattered to pieces
The blood that drips from it
All of it belonged to you
Oh I would love to put you into a compartment
Inside my brain
And never feel for you
What I do
But I can’t
I rather take the pain
Take the torture
Because it meant that you loved me
I’d rather remember
The haunting words of your goodbye
Because it meant that you loved me
Once…
