If you treat me like a princess, I'll treat you like a prince.
If you treat me like a game, I'll show you how it's played.


I am broken.
Irreversibly so
My pieces
barely stay together.
I am shattered
like glass,
thrown to the floor
and left there.
I am lost,
trying to fight
he left me here
all alone.
I am dying,
my heart torn out
It was in his hands
he dropped it.
I am destroyed
by something new
that was once so sweet
now seeks my demise.
I am in love
Even though
he abandoned me
Broke me.
I am broken.
It’s all his fault.
He said “Love”
He lied.
I am a stranger.
Lost to myself.
Slowly slipping.
Losing ground.
I am dead.
Nothing inside.
Demons devoured
My soul.

Sad and true.

Life isn't measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments which take your breath away.

You are only as strong as your weakest link.

Beautiful poem, especially the style in which it's written (short lines and powerful statements)
