I'm glad that you walked out of that house

That House of Love,

I had believed you would never forsake

Must have felt liberating, leaving me shaken 

Abandoning my warm grip to hold your own

 

The emotional tides that came as you left were overpowering

Left me stranded and weeping 

Could reach you anytime

Had believed in our love that would stitch us close

Closer than before

 

You walked out of our house to never return 

Kept peeping through the window to watch me suffer 

Until your eyes were soar and your heart all yours

No trace of me, all yours 

 

Finally, I saw the house aflame 

Realized I was still enclosed in

I wounded myself in the process of saving what had left of me

I couldn't save my heart 

Fallen inside

Among the flames

 

Nothing stood 

You left

I had to leave without my heart

Accepting we will never build what had fallen 

Still

My heart remains there 

Beating loud beneath the rubbles 

Beating for you
