De Diepte

Sometimes the hurtful memories of a past relationship can be placed into a box.

I got a box with all the things you left behind

the small and big that imprinted on my heart

To notes

To photos

To the letters never received 

From the way I loved you

To the way I began hating you

This box carries it all

From the spark burning bright

To the ashes it left behind

Yet I cannot let go of the thing that hurts most

To the way it pulls

To the way it tears

From the way I thought I knew you

To the way I realized I never would

I got a box with all the emotions you left behind

the never ending pain in a tragedy

To the grief

To the misery

To the dreams I thought we would achieve

From the way I loved you endlessly 

And to the very way you made me feel like nothing

This box it carries it all

From the way you embodied every fear of mine

To the way you used every knife to make me bleed out
