Heart In Your Teeth

You had my heart in your teeth from the moment I met you. My heart became so vulnerable. The first second I caught the glitter in your eyes when they met mine. Even though you ripped my love from below me like a rug. It was not your fault. You were scared of what they would say or think. Of what the consequence of our love if became one at last. How could you let me wait so long? Every second that goes by is like a knife, twisting in my stomach, like I’m fainting inside own soul, drowning in my dreams of you and I. Today I exhaled a ocean of water, for I know you never loved me. You used my heart like a fake identity to gain your control over my life. To grasp me so close, like a human slave to void the pain in your life! You used me, like a human punch bag! Not physically but emotionally! My scars from your words will never fade! I have to live with them for eternity and I will forever be reminded of your torture that you embedded in my poor heart! My instinct was not to be unkind to you, but to love and nurture, to take care of you! Your imaginary love fooled me for years! You made me think my dreams where on the edge of reality! Now I know! If you can damage me like this and terrorise my heart! How can you possibly love me? If my instinct was to shield you from the pain? This is how I know. You had my heart in your teeth!
