Taking It All

there is nothing left

Taking It All

You had my heart

Held firmly in your fist 

You tore it apart

So I ended up like this 

As you shredded my soul

I shredded my own skin

I am no longer whole

Physically or within

The blood from a gash

Pours endlessly like rain

Now turned to ash

My heart ignited in pain

The scars on my skin

Eventually will fade 

But the scars left within

Are permanently made

You emptied my heart

And robbed my soul

Tearing it apart

And taking it all

One only thing left of me

And it's left for you to take:

My troubled mind wandering free,

Regretting a life full of mistakes

So keep that old piece 

As a memory of my life 

A deal started with your words

And sealed with a knife

This is a tragic and sad write. You did a great job pouring the emotions into the words. This is my favorite part:
"The scars on my skin
Eventually will fade
But the scars left within
Are permanently made"
Great write! :)
