Heart of Stone

you hurt me
I became hard
inhuman, heartless
a creation of yours
one that you couldn't control

I was pure
was innocent
than you came along
used me like a rag doll
then you ran me through the mud

in your eyes
nothing, empty

words of love echos
as you hit me again
my mind doesn't stop reeling

silent scream
my voice gone dumb
took it, didn't beg

kept hitting anyway
pissed you off I didn't cry

you slept hard
I heard you snore

my need to survive

I was never more sure

with glee, I smashed in your skull

you took my humanity
I took your life

Love is a Four Letter Word
