Torn From the Pages of My Heart

Break Me

Let the drums beat, eagles squeal
Splash of fire upon a violet veil
Stump away the dusts below your feet
Skip, spin and burn, in violent wind

Let me take your heart and break it with a stab
Spread the pieces out upon the wilting grass
Let my fingertips run on the ragged edges
Before I'd blow a kiss on every crest of its cracks

Let me break your heart and mold it
The way my heart was broken and molded
Into a ghost, into a steel, with staunch anger
Fueling my will

Now you strum on my wooden heart strings
No song comes out, just echoing numbness
I take out my veil, you see a white dress
Contrasting the abysmal eyes of black

Still the drums beat as you take in
The gnashing wisdom that creases my skin
My cracked lips mute, yet eloquently screaming
Pleading, "break my heart, and mold it
Into innocence again."

So the drums that beat, the eagles that squeal
Would fall to their rest, and leave me with...
A heart-throbbing mind... that loves, that heals.
