If you only knew
I drowned each night,
Would you
Save me?
If you only knew
My broken heart
Was daily sacrificed,
Would it suffice?
If you only knew,
How minutes fade
Into the void
Of regrets,
Would you be there,
Just to watch me
Burn?
If you only knew
The paths I took
To trace each vein
To your careless heart,
Would you reach out
To catch me?
If you only knew
How you ruin me,
Binding my hands,
Clipping wings,
Poisoning me
With words of desire,
Turning the dark
Into light,
Only to plunge me
Into the night.
If you only knew,
How sweet is the pain
Of each broken hour,
Sending me down
To follow
The shadow and blood
Leaving me
Helpless
In the raging storm…
Would you save me?
You’d leave me
There.
Bound.
At your
Disposal.
