Heartbroken

© 2008 Faduma Yusuf

I’m broken in so many pieces,
got nothing left to prove.
Life has lost all of its sweetness,
I’m bitter from loving you.
With every step you take, I miss a heartbeat.
Everytime you’re near, you make my heart weak.

Can not stand this fake romance with all its lies and dalliance.
Thinkin that I wouldn’t notice, wouldn’t suspect
that your heart is no longer mine??
Life is built on cause and effect.
You take your love,I hurt inside,
you broke my heart but I’m more wise,
to the games you play and the words you say and
the sweet whispers that led me astray,
deep into the burnin pits of hell that is sprinkled with the ashes of my broken heart.
Far from the safety net of caution that kept me from falling apart.

Every promise you made were just empty words.
words that went from being in a sentence to becoming a verse.
I guess your hypnotic song is what stole my soul.
A snake charmer hell bent on mind control.
