punishment

Once I had a heart,
till I eat it out.

Once I knew what love was,
cause I held it in my hands.

Now I know what pain is,
heart broken into more than two.

empty hands,
empty pockets,
empty seconds, minutes, hours,
days, weeks, months, years,

empty life,

that goes on too long,

this fool's punishment
for losing a love
once so true.
