Slow poison of your being near
killed my awareness and esteem
called you my backbone so had to bear
when you break me I can't scream
Gave you most innocent heart of mine
wished to share your joy and fears
the scars you gave are more combine
than what I received from others in tears
Heard that world is not a happy place
I found it foolish, laughed with you
broken now when I think and trace
was an idiot, you were smarter too
Bygone dust on remaining dull frames rust
your fading betrayal takes last breath with gust
