BaronAutumn

I stare down at the scars that cast shadows across my skin, streaked with blood warm and wet and fresh Remember your promise whispered into the small of my neck as you held me close. "We'll get through this together." And I stare down at the blood on my hands and the blood on the sheets, and the blood on the glass that I shattered across my thigh And all I can think about is your absence. Poignant in my chest, You left me with a heartbeat but no heart.
