Rip It Out
I want to give you something of mine.
The whole thing, not just a part.
It has been broken for so long now.
Watch me rip out my own heart!
Don't you scream!
It doesn't matter!
I have no use for it anymore.
It wasn't just you, all of this handiwork.
There is no sense in keeping score.
Now here it comes!
That putrid organ!
Why don't you reach your hand inside?
Grab that damn heart and rip it through
like on the night that my spirit died!
Yes, you feel it don't you love?
And you are love in every form.
I'll never know your acquaintance.
Never shall you keep me warm.
To look at you (spit!)
Your twisted smile.
My heart feels cold within your hand.
Now rip it out love!
Rip it out!
At last you have made me understand.

This is worthy and very comparable to the writings of Edgar Allan Poe! Makes me think of his Tell Tale Heart.

Like a torn note from a symphony, this is so powerful it takes me deep into the heart of lost love like I have never seen or read. Powerful and raw my friend.
