I Don't Want It back

My corpse walked through this world, thundered and blasted by anxieties within
My lackluster gaze lingered on nothing but saw everything
My vacant heart was diminishing with each day
Your love liberated the delicate being obscured within me
Drawing out the poison and guiding me away from the ledge

Never deserting my side
Never forsaking my heart
No longer are my smiles empty
No longer is my gaze lifeless

Reshaping my convictions, you tended to my open wounds
Replenishing the drought in my veins, renewing inside me the hope of survival
Lending me your hand, rebirthing my veiled emotions
Drying my every tear, rebuilding my shattered body piece by piece

Never deserting my side
Never forsaking my heart
No longer are my smiles empty
No longer is my gaze lifeless

In return you asked for my heart
Tear it from my chest and keep it safe
I don’t want it back
