Everyone tells us to ignore the pain
To never show emotion
Because we're men and men don't cry
But that night when you
Walked out of my life for good
Without even looking back after
All that we were?
All that we had been?
You walked right through me
And sucked my soul out of my chest
As you left, leaving
Me a hollow and empty shell of what
I once was
And as these cyclones swim in my
Eyes and the cold crystals devoid of warmth fall
Down rosy flesh and form rivulets
Of pain that etch their way along my skin I
Wonder
How could you wake up this morning and
Decide that I wasn't important to you anymore?
How could you leave me like this?
With that memory of how you used to love me
Once upon a time
