I didn't even notice when you stole from me.

I was distracted by the warmth of what you told me was 'love'.

It glowed brighter than anything I had seen before
And I flew higher than I knew I could.

You said you were fixing me.




You were just out for what wasn't yours for the taking.





Suddenly
I hit the ground. Hard.


Smash.

Choke.

Retch.

Burn.


You turned out the light and I fell.





I screamed for you!
Implored for your help!
My hands grasped for yours and
Met only darkness.




You took one look at what you had taken from me
And smashed it into the ground.
You didn't even want it.

You shrugged, turned your back,
Left as I gasped for air.
The blood poured out of me, as my heartbeat weakened

And my resolve grew stronger.






You left me with nothing to lose.


I have licked my wounds.


The taste of blood has whet my appetite.


Now I'm out for yours.
