I remember the sting in my heart
When you took her hand and turned your back on me
And i was left with his
I remember the sting on my skin
When you chanted her name
With religious fervor
The hiss of each sound peeling the layers away from my bones
I remember the sting in my ears
As your praises of love drowned out my voice
In an ocean of pollen and poison
I remember the sting in my eyes
When i held her hand
And left his behind
And you plucked my wings off my body
I remember the sting in my heart
When the mask fell away
And you decided i was better silent
Like always
