That Slash

by Christina McDowell   Jan 3, 2007


How it hurts to remember
How it's impossible to forget
I sit here and hold in my temper
An try not to get upset

I wish I could just laugh
And my love story was just a joke
All that is left is a gap
Since my heart broke

How it shattered into a million pieces
With only that slash
How it pleases
Within a flash

That one slash gets bigger
Every time I feel the pain
Well go figure
Before I go insane

But now it's too late
I was already slashed
I'm here to wait
And finally get mashed

Does it bring you pleasure
When I'm in pain?
Is it your treasure
To know I'm crying in the rain?

Why must you play games
That break me apart?
It's really lame
That you slashed my heart

What have I done to deserve this?
To be pained with this mark?
Have I gone amiss
As I have been standing in the dark?

There is no medication
That can heal this gash
No conversation
That could close this gash

Please fix my aching heart
And completely start over
I don't want us to part
I want us to be lovers

My heart is so true
My intentions are serious
I really love you
And make my heart beat furious

I will give you anything
Just so we can be happily together
Since you're my king
So we can be forever....
