I am Jack's Poetry

Two Hearts

	My heart is empty
	I poured it all out
	   to you
	I tried to make you understand
	   why
	   I had to go
 	But my words
	   never made it
	   to your ears
	They were shot down
	   and fell
	   flat
	Your words ripped my flesh
	You thrust your sharpened knives
	   into my heart
	   and twisted the blades
	I bore your blows
	I swam upstream
	   your river of hurt
	You were the thundecloud
	   that rained
	   acid rain
	   in my troubled sky
	Finally my soul snapped
	   my words were knives
	   and I was wounding
	   you
	Oh can I ever forgive
	   myself
	Then I left
	   I turned and walked
	   out of your life
	But I know
	   that we're of the same heart still
	That I wounded you
	   just as you wounded me
	We are lost
	Two souls longing
	   for each other
	Two people trying
	   to forget
	   the past
	Two hearts
	   that bleed
	   as one
