Your love is an arrow, laced with black

You positioned it on, pulled it back

Struck me right through the heart, not once but twice

My senses have deceived me, you’ve never been nice

Your eyes are rich blue, like the color of the sky

But they were truly deep pools, crawling with lies

You let me swim, then made me drown

You built my throne, then took my crown

Your lips are poison, an agonizing death

They’re the last thing I see before I take my last breath

Your hands were like knives cutting into my skin

Exploring my body, destroying from within

Your words are like sleeves, concealing tricks

I want them gone, they make me sick

You don’t love me, and you never have, really

I’m rid of you now, and I’m ready to start healing.
