Left Me Stone (A poem)

You can't kill my heart,
for it's already dead,
emotions have gone,
all blood has bled

You sunk in your teeth,
and sucked me dry,
you left me to float,
through the eternal dark sky,
you drank my blood,
and swallowed it down,
King of my heart,
who wears my crown,
you traced your lips,
with a blood stained tongue,
upturned corners
yell, "The game's still on!"

You stole my life,
with that very first kiss,
you took it all,
and left me with this.

You reach out your hand,
and pull me close,
I fall into your arms,
I want this the most,
you breath in deep,
and suck in my air,
I love you so much,
For you I'd go anywhere,
But you turn your back,
and skulk away,
completely drained,
alone I lay.

I curl up tightly,
round as a ball,
my ears are pricked,
waiting for your call.

I stare on up,
into the inky black,
silently willing,
that you walk right back,
I cradle myself,
with my childish belief,
that the one who is my protector,
would return to me,
Forever does pace,
purposefully on,
gone is the light,
which inside me shone,
I offer myself,
to the whispering night,
I sacrifice my strength,
surrender my fight.

Now I am empty,
as hollow as the promise,
you gift wrapped,
and sealed with a kiss.

Now you resurface,
to claim me again,
I stand alone,
drenched with blood and rain,
my soulless blank eyes,
do not even see,
you standing opened armed,
have returned for me,
my name you sing,
a sweet lullaby,
deaf and blind,
I do not register the tear in your eye,
I pass straight by you,
I walk alone,
you stole everything,
and left me stone.

You can't kill me
I'm a long time dead,
emotions have gone,
every last drop of my blood
has bled.

pinkroses4eva- Welcome to Able2Know! Very Happy

Wow! What deep emotion in your poem. I don't know what to say. You certainly have captured a mood of a young girl going through the torment of unrequited love. Love to see more of your work!
