If I could turn back time

I never had a chance

to experience true hopelessness

Until you came along

and took everything

away

My last bit of innocence

Extracted with your fingertips

A new kind of pain

injected with your

personal syringe

And that day you said

you loved me

I discovered true dishonesty

And after one last row

one last slice

I turned away from you

so I could

heal

and by leaving you behind

I lost my greatest fear

and took everything

I used to love

and burned it

so I could start

anew
