Heart Shards
Behind your eyes
I see the lies
That you concoct for me
I can see
Don't treat me as a mockery
I've not been taken on your knee
and taught every wicked thought
I stand now free for I have fought
To gain this victory it's all my own
I leave you now to find another home
You are not mine and I will not return
So watch me as I walk away and burn
I ground all memories into the dust
Left alone to decay and rot and rust
You are no more to me but past regret
I leave it all to you so sink and set
I shall not stoop for any but the best
And you, I fear, are so much worse than less
This is a glad hearted goodbye of mine
Though tears and heart shards I shall leave behind
Broken pieces of things
that I once knew
And turning on I move far beyond
you
