You sat there with my heart in your hand
slowing tightening your grasp around it
I reach out to you as I fall to my knees
In pain I look up at you as you hover over me
Almost as if you’re taunting me telling me
That my heart will always be in your hands
I lay at your feet wondering why it came to this
Why did you leave and take my heart with you
Why do you hold me hostage in my own mind
Why does my heart have to ache and break
Loving you was a poison I didn’t know I took

Acutely felt words. Stay Safe.
Love sometimes feels this way. Well said.
I felt this one instantly.
Enjoyed the read
Sorry for the pain
Very good emotive words.
Andy
a good read,
summed-up your message with that poignant last line
