A million pieces (club contest)

by Grant Gilbert AKA Slash   Oct 11, 2008


A million pieces

You placed your icy grip around my heart
You squeezed it tight till it broke apart
I have not cried in so many years
You drew them out, those forgotten tears

These wicked games you love to play
Just a little hurting everyday
My broken heart scattered on the ground
A million pieces to be found

This love of mine with the shining face
Her devils tail was my disgrace
Your cleverness brought so much pride
My murder, now is suicide

I drank the poison from your cup
But not before I tied you up
A buzzing saw above your head
Is hanging by a piece of thread

As the poison takes my life
My hand relaxed, you won't survive
The final sight my eyes did see
A million pieces in front of me

    Although you posted this poem on the dark section, I'd say the first two stanzas is infact, rather poignant. Utterly sad.........talk about tears."Those forgotten tears"......this line says so much more. Loved it!

    wow ! I believe that the one we love give us pain but when they take our life , they have no one like us to give pain and they survive no more. I agree !
    Love this poem
    Well written!
    5/5
    Peace and cheers !
