Shattered Dreams
My lips drip with clear silence as thunderstorms rage though my emotional destruction
Devouring pieces and morsels of you left behind
I still hunger for this jagged romantic hell
while I chew from the leftover cactus Pricking my wounded heart
I reach for my oasis hoping to wash residue covering my soul you left dry
Once upon a time it was a fairy-tale come true
Lovingly I followed you to the path of meaningless mirages and hopeless wonders
I choke with agonizing thirst from shame as I discovered you didn't love me
Yet
I still loved you
Now, I lay bleeding from the raze of your memory turning into bitter ashes of my shattered dreams
