Can you give it back?


It’s just like a body
without a brain
without lungs
without blood
without anything that holds the adjective
‘vital’
Dear, what’s the point?
If the pain in my chest
will only spread like wild fire
and the blood in my veins
will only make it grow
the tears in my eyes
will be like calcium to my bones
You leaving,
was more than having my limbs ripped out
by a cold blooded murderer
and yes, it hasn't happened
but I imagine is about the same
Maybe if you haven’t taken anything
I could be whole
but my heart
was sewn to your sleeve
how could have you returned it
if you didn't know it was there
if you still don’t know it’s there
Can you realize it’s there?
Can you give it back?
my chest feels empty without it
my brain has a hard time
trusting anyone
this walls, they protect me,
but they keep me trapped
Dear, can you return it?
put the tiny pieces inside a box
tie it safely with a red bow
give it to me as a present
on the day that I was born
