The Break

This was written to express the actions some might go through when they reach the end of a bad relationship.

I bound my eyes with blood and knife,

better to not see your face in this strife,

I removed my tongue and all sense of taste,

better still not to speak your name,

I gouged my mind and memory

better than the thoughts and possibilities,

I tore my heart and set a flame,

better to kill my love and fester hate.
