Gone From You

Let go, her heart is gone from you is what He just said...
and then she said...
I slept with another and no longer want to share this bed...
so...
get out!
Now, I stopped from shock and listened to the tick tock of my slowing heart...
And I'm done showing vulnerable parts...
to people that have the power to paralyze...
You know the long haired kind with real pretty eyes...
eyes that say go, but really meant don't.
Don't you commit your heart to this, so easily... so readily dismissed.
And I missed all the red flags on the way to your place.
I was distracted by the sweet talking, by that sugary taste.
But... it was poison fed by the spoon... and..
it was misleading, that piper's fine tune.
And you keep catching butterflies and wiping the dust off their wings.
so... now they can only flutter for the rest of their ruined life...
And me, well, I'm flailing from the venom of my black widow wife.
But that hourglass was so fucking alluring and...
that look in her eyes so fucking assuring...
That I flung myself right into her web and invited that sting.
The one that greys over your orbs and hides all the pain that she brings...
And..
Now I'm just silently dying inside.
