Your Empty Love (Collab between Nyx and Ashlyn)

I lie awaiting death,
With tears glistening in my eyes.
I threw away my release
Because I couldn't handle
The lies.

Here in the darkness, I
Know myself.
I couldn't hide the emptiness,
I let it show.
I know the difference between
Myself and my reflection,
But what I wish to know
Is, which of us, do you love?
You taught me to look in your eyes,
And fed me your sweet lies,
You told me, my love,
Without me, you're nothing.
You put me together, then trashed me for pleasure.
You only used me, you abused me, you
Confused me....
Which of us.... Do you love?

Could it be the broken heart?
Or the one wishing for a start?
Do you love your own pleasure?
Do you pick and choose at leisure?
I see you with my friend.
Does it show we're at our end?
Can you see me for myself?
Or is she your everything else?

Did she.. Can she heal the wounds
That I failed to see?
You left me..
But why?
You cut me down to a thing you
Could use, but there was
Nothing left of me I
Fear. You're gone
And i'm still here.
I'm left with myself again.

And in this lonely pattern,
My heart is left tattered.
Do you see the pain of
Not letting you take the blame?
I feel so abandoned, so alone.
And I can't bring myself to find a home.

Yet I still love you.
I do not know how or why.
But I do..
You left, is it because of your guilt?
Lay it on me,
Don't cry honey, I am used to this agony.
My heart thinks you want me, it bleeds.
Don't cry, relief is in this silver blade.
I cry, I bleed, my heart
Isn't beating anymore..
It's breaking.
There goes my reflection.
Good night temporary love...
