As I lay in the snow bleeding out into the emptiness of my own heart

You come, whisper a broken quote from a movie I used to love when I was a little girl

Twist the knife and leave

All I waited for was for you to save me

Put the ladder that was right there into that never ending

Well you dumped me in.

But, knowing your selfish heart for almost 14 years

Told me you wouldn’t even try.

So, you learn by yourself how to climb out of never ending wells

Especially the wells you were put in by the person you thought loved you

Or you didn’t.

The ladder lays there, above ground, right where you used to stand

The snow memorized my name before you even knew my favorite color.

So years pass.

Years that could have been filled by longing

Replaced by emptiness and coldness

My corpse still lies there.

Unaware that you’ve left for a family better than your own.
