Unsaved Heart

I gave you the last key to my heart,
hoping you would save me,
but deeply fearing you would break me.

A red flag suddenly appeared
and I could envision everyone
disappearing on me;
everyone I try desperately to forget.

I never would have made it this far in my life,
before you came along,
but deep down I knew this dreaded day would come;
the day you left.

Right now my emotions are frozen
and I am afraid to open my heart
because I know my eyes will bleed
until the oceans all run dry.

I gave you the very last key to my broken heart,
only to find out that nothing has been saved.
