Necropolis

Things I Never Knew

I never knew it was possible

To continuously for five long hours weep

I never knew it was possible

To function on two hours of sleep

I never thought you'd puncture me so deep

You, the one who loved me like no other

You, the first to call me your lover

You, who wanted to kiss the skin I excoriate

You, who knew all my illnesses and didn't hesitate

You, the one who never thought of marriage or raising a child, until you met me

You, the one who swore I was as perfect as could be

In spite of everything

You, who wanted me more than anything

More than anyone ever had

I never knew it was possible

To be loved like that

You, the one who abandoned me abruptly, as if it had all been nothing to you

As if I was nothing, leaving me with nothing

You, once medicine to my heart, now poison

You stole my soft heart & destroyed it

Now I'll never get it back
