Sacrifice

I don't want to talk about it
The all consuming doubt
Leave me crying until the pains fade.
Abandon me; bleeding on the floor
I don't want to relive that week
The week it all ended, in bloodstained sheets and a tiny corpse.
The crimson stains soaked into it all.
Sacrifice - I would have given my own life for hers.
Rejection flows through my veins as I am cast off forever; by my own self
No sacrifice is enough
I feel my heartbeat strain against my ribcage, as I imagine hers did
Or would have done.
Deception is my downfall once more.
But now it is her downfall also.
Wounded and bruised I scream into the desolate abyss
"Undo this!
I am broken for the last time..."
Press rewind.
Horror at old scars being thoughtlessly ripped from the places they had been
Q)Who am I if I'm useless?
A) Unforgivable. Unloved. Lost.
