So you're gone, and I'm haunted



Things come to me piece by piece,
                                                        word for word,
                                                     phrase by phrase.
     
  Endings,
                              middles,
                                                       new beginnings
come to me too.
He didn't come piece by piece,
he came as a whole
a sensory overload. 




You tied my hands
you twisted my tongue
you told me your lies
and showed me what I'd become;
a monster.
Nothing was familiar;
not a word                               
not a sound            
not a piece.
You left, you screamed
you walked right out that door.
You left me with this body, a nothing, a whore.
You got what you wanted 
and I got nothing more.

And now, when I think of you
I can can only think of one thing
are you happy with what you've done?
