bitter taste

when you loved, really loved then lost.

this bitter taste in my mouth is love gone sour
i have lost the power to stand
to walk
to sit
to spit
because these tears ive cried over you
have left me empty
you who once had me so high
i thought i could fly
with wings on a dove
you my love ran through me
you soothed me
hearing your voice threw me
into a fit of passion
i so hot that i could melt glaciers
when approaching them from the west
now this mess that i am in
has left this nastiness in my head
and in my heart
im about to fall apart
could somebody please come
and catch these pieces of me
ive been broken and blinded by rejection you see
well not really rejection
because i did have a taste of you
you just chose to throw me up
and out of you
then you turned
and then you walked away
i stood and watched until i could see you no more
at that very moment my essence escaped me
and i was left dazed
and confused
and drained
my brain had lost all its functions
i could not move
i could not speak
so i fell to my knees
and opened my mouth wide
and a cry bellowed from within me deep
but no man could
understand its sound
for it came from deep within my soul
and it told of the pain
that was currently coursing through my veins
and there i was left alone
to hold my shame

my eyes are dry
my body weak
and this bitter taste in my mouth is love gone sour
