Heartless  

You smiled at me with your luscious lips
Your eyes twinkling with happiness
Your hands on mine were warm
Tracing the lifeline on my open palm
You whispered love and promises
Your tomorrows with me were spoken
And avidly planned in love’s bright hope

I gave my all my body and soul
My breath I breathed for you
My body was yours to keep and use
As yours was mine to explore and adore
Until at last, the curtain fell
On your promises not meant to be kept
When you fell in love with another

You kissed her just as you did me
You made love to her just like so
I saw your arms around the woman
So like me and yet so different
I almost died, I was heartbroken
I thought my life was over
I could not get rid of the pain

Until tonight you came to me
So tired and so forlorn
Your lover had dumped you
At least you said that to me
I held you close within my arms
Hush baby its alright
You have come home to me

Now here you lie your face serene
So relaxed in eternal sleep
I had to do what I just did
Ripped your heart from within your breast
As the blood flows within this white tub
I rest my head against your chest
Where it is heartless as it should be
