Tainted Scar

As she secretly bleeds,

No one hears her internal screams,

Nor do they see her hidden tears.

Isolating herself from people, life ..and him.

Sacrificed her heart just to get a taste of his love.

As she bit into him, his muscles tightened; he released his poison.

She bit deeper for she enjoyed this taste; love..

Sucked it straight out of him not realising it wil soon consume her..

He just lay ther with an evil smirk letting her become tainted..

Not nowing he held her heart which was becoming contaminated..

Pulling back for a gasp of air she shriek with fear to feel the side effects hit her rite in her chest..

He ripped it right out thinkin itll be her cure..

The blood dripped down his wrist..

Her heart; fragile, weighed down with his poison yet so pure..

As the beat died out she began to turn cold,

Her heart another man will never be able to hold.

He watched her eyes become emrald n evil but he still he believed he hadnt done enough..

Crushed her heart in his bare hand; tough.

The days pass and her and the nights grew cold, her heart shattered, never again able to unfold..

Lost count of of nights she's cried in the dark...

Wondering, why.. why she is the one left with the tainted SCAR..
