I do not understand <br />why my heart still bleeds <br />for him who it cannot have. <br /> <br />I endure the agony, <br />pierce the pain, <br />but it is still there. <br /> <br />Why him? <br /> <br />He took my heart <br />and then ripped it to shreds, <br />then I did the same to his. <br /> <br />Words forming on our lips, <br />neither will ever have <br />the courage to speak. <br /> <br />The words then fall <br />to the ground <br />without so much as a <br />goodbye. <br /> <br />So much regret, <br />falling withing invisible tears, <br />making puddles on the ground. <br /> <br />Love is lost in anger, <br />words of biting truth <br />make me forget our past. <br /> <br />Only to remember it later, <br />to shy away in horror <br />at what The Dragon has done. <br /> <br />The bond broken, <br />the trust lost. <br /> <br />The heart attempts <br />to sew itself back together <br />but it won't hold. <br /> <br />Fire has severed the ties <br />that once held me, <br />poisoned the love <br />I once believed in. <br /> <br />Our story has ended, <br />the journey over. <br /> <br />And all I want to do <br />is feel you holding me <br />just like you used to. <br />You were my shield. <br /> <br />But no; <br />you are the Black Knight, <br />the venomous serpent, <br />my enemy. <br /> <br />As I strum <br />the strings of my heart, <br />they still hum your melody.<br /><br />The Queen's Dagger<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/your-melody-3/
