Tell me…
Break my heart with the truth as I handed you the condom I found in your wallet.
Lies do nothing for me I want your truth, so it can set me free. “You fucking love me” this minute the next your cold and nonchalant, actions show it all but I just want to hear the words to substantiate this battle I fight within.
Break the final straps of the heart we both share so I can give someone else my portion. I will not use hateful and hurtful words when you finally become transparent unraveling the truth that we both know I will simply just walk away knowing that the person I once loved didn't love me, the person that made promises, and now breaking every last one of them was a figment of my imagination. You no longer exist in the heart that you planted in my chest and watch grew so you can break it repeatedly. The occupancy you held in my dreams, my subconsciousness will evolve once I walk away knowing and accepting that you were never a real person or that you've died and life goes on.

I am envious of your power establish a common frame of reference on an emotional level. This poem reminds me of a New Order song lyric which I have long been fond of:
"My life ain't no holiday
I've been through the point of no return
I've seen what a man can do
I've seen all the hate of a woman too."
-- Vanishing Point
One of John Donne's Poems describes a successful relationship, and speaks of souls rather than hearts:
"When love with one another so
Interinanimates two souls,
That abler soul, which thence doth flow,
Defects of loneliness controls."
-- The Extasy
I found one sentence in the poem particularly striking:
"Break the final straps of the heart we both share so I can give someone else my portion."
In just eighteen words it sums up the feelings of someone who suspects they are being cheated on but requires the admission of fact, need to be told that their partner has someone else. The choice of words with sharp and soft sounds adds to the poetry. Great write. Keep it up.
