Embrace to Heartache

By RubyXero

"Get it over with"
they spat. Fucking pigs.
God I hate them... (tear fell)
So I move to you, my beautiful
angel. My love...
I see that trapped look on
your face. The sorrow as you
know we shall be separated now.
Love put to the test.
I leaned in, to kiss you.
I could get lost in that kiss,
and I did... 'til they made me
leave.

The chase over. The rat
caught. Their rat, my warrior.
As we slept, that last night together,
you cried on my chest,
begging for forgiveness.
"Please stay with me, babe.
Please..."

I gave you my heart and
my energy through the symbol.
Air, fire, water, earth
and spirit.
"I'll get it back when you
return to me."

Justice gave her judgement.
And labelled you...9 years.
Meaning 7 1/2.

I think back to that day,
May 30th.
6 months ago.

Seems so long ago...forever.
But my heart remembers
it as yesterday.
With that fresh pain
still on the surface...

    I'd slap the one who said 'time heals' because it doesn't, we all know that and this is a solid proof.I feel your sorrow, nicely written.

    The last part reminds me of an old love that I lost long ago but it was like yesterday and it still hurts. It always does...
