A river of wretchedness
will eternally choke
the haunting chasm
you chiselled in my heart.

You wore me down then,
tore me down
to the thinnest
layer of my flesh.

The fury under my skin
can never be unleashed
by anyone but you. 
You made it. 
You earned it.

Why did you torment me?
Tempt me with 
your sweet love. 
Your faux love. 
You mistook need for love.

I loved you too much and
I tried so hard not to. 
Loving you is an addiction and
I knew you were bad for me.
I realise now
you're an unnecessary want,
a craving; not a need.

I adored you so, 
Why did you 
let me go?
I knew then
It was too late,
I loved you too much.

I've hoped you would 
return one day. 
Please try again. 
Let me in and I will
Show you
my love is pure
You need to know.

Why not linger a while?
Come for a ride with me
until you feel a 
chasm In your heart
fill with misery.

The fury under my skin
can never be unleashed
by anyone but you. 
You made it. 
You earned it.
