We were breaking
each others hearts.
We were burned out,
the last few ashes of
a love once red-hot
falling to the floor.
We wanted the love
to last,to burn as bright
as it had the day we
first met, but it couldn't.
We wanted it so bad
we tore each other apart
until we couldn't
recognize ourselves.
Then, we left with
shards of a broken
heart stabbing us
from the inside out.
Lost and alone,we
destroyed the only thing
we'd ever loved; each other.
