Prisoner of Love.. No NOT Love

By SickSanityJenn

I brush my hand down your face
What you call love is a disgrace
You're everything I despise
I have nothing left inside

You had no heart, you had no soul
I gave you mine to make you whole
I gave you hope, I gave you trust
Gave you love and spared you lust
But now I'm empty and exposed
This hollow corpse is just for show
The only filled space is in my head
I'm not living but I'm not dead

I gave you the best of me
Tried to spare you the worst
My body is what's left of me
Trapped inside this curse

Now I dont't have a heart
My dreams have fallen apart
My eyes are blind, my ears are deaf
My crumbling shell has nothing left

I only meant to help my dear
To give you what you need
But now I am bound here
A broken prisoner of my deeds
