MY  HEART
BY LAUREN AKA THE-LISTNER
I GAVE YOU MY HEART WRAPPED IN A BOX.
IT NEVER LOOKED SO GOOD. YOU TOOK IT WITH A NOD AND SAID AN UNCONVINCING ‘THANKS’
I WAS SO HAPPY YOU TOOK IT THAT I NEVER LOOKED INTO THE TONE YOU USED.
I HOPED YOU WOULD GIVE ME YOUR HEART TOO I HOPED YOURS BELONGED TO ME LIKE MINE ALWAYS BELONGS TO YOU.
BUT YOU WALKED AWAY WITH MY HEART IN YOUR HANDS
WITHOUT A BACKWARD GLACE  I THOUGHT YOU WOULD NEVER COME BACK IF I MOVED SO I STOOD THERE FOR 5 YEARS AND YOU NEVER CAME BACK. NOT ONCE.
I COULD HAVE MOVED ALL I WANTED. I KNOW THAT NOW.
I DIED THERE, IN THE VERY SPOT WHERE I GAVE YOU MY HEART. WHERE YOU WALKED AWAY FOREVER.
I EVEN GOT BURIED THERE, JUST IN CASE YOU CAME BACK, LOOKING FOR ME. I WANTED YOU TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO ME.
ANOTHER 5 YEARS AND YOU STILL HADN'T CAME BACK.
THE DAY AFTER I GAVE YOU MY HEART, 10 YEARS LATER YOU FINALLY  CAME BACK
‘TODAY IS THE DAY YOU DIED 5 YEARS AGO, AND 5 YEARS BEFORE THAT YOU GAVE ME YOUR HEART,’ YOU SAID ’10 YEARS AGO I WALKED AWAY AND NEVER RETURNED. AFTER I GOT YOUR HEART I PUT IT IN MY ROOM AND FORGOT ABOUT IT, BUT GUESS WHAT I FOUND IT YESTERDAY! I THOUGHT YOU SHOULD HAVE IT BACK AND TODAY BEING THE DAY  YOU DIED AND I GUESS ITS SORT OF LIKE OUR ANNIVERSARY… I THOUGHT TODAY WAS THE BEST DAY TO GIVE IT BACK’
‘TODAY IS NOT THE DAY I GAVE YOU MY HEART OR THE DAY I DIED!!! THAT ALL HAPPENED YESTERDAY!!!
10 YEARS AGO YESTERDAY YOU WALKED AWAY FROM ME AND THE FUTURE WE COULD HAVE HAD!!!
5 YEARS AGO YESTERDAY I DIED BECAUSE I NEVER LET YOU GO!!!
NEVER MOVED ON!!!   AND KNOW HERE YOU ARE BACK AT THIS SPOT BACK TO SEE ME AND WITH NO SORRY!!!    DO YOU NOT REALISE HOW MUCH YOU  HURT ME!!!”
BUT OF COURSE HE COULDN’T HEAR ME AS I AM DEAD AND UNDER GROUND
AND HE WAS LONG GONE!!!            
THE NEXT DAY MY MOTHER CAME TO VISIT ME AND SHE SAW THE BOX WITH MY HEART INSIDE AND UNDERSTOOD RIGHT AWAY THAT HE MUST HAVE CAME TO VISIT ME AND HOW I WOULD BE SCREAMING IN MY GRAVE.
SHE WENT BACK HOME AND GATHERED SOME TOOLS SHE THOUGHT SHE WOULD NEED.
30 MINS LATER SHE WAS BACK AND STARTED TO DO WHAT SHE THOUGHT I WOULD WANT.
ANOTHER 20 MINS LATER AND SHE PUT MY HEART IN A WHOLE NEXT TO MY GRAVE STONE.
ON TOP OF MY HEART SHE PUT ANOTHER GRAVE STONE.
THIS ONE SAID:
HERE LAYS THE HEART OF MY BEAUTIFUL GIRL
SHE NEVER BELIEVED HER HEART BELONGED TO HER
SO SHE GAVE IT AWAY TO THE PERSON SHE LOVED MORE THEN LIFE IT SELF
AFTER 10 YEARS AND 1 DAY HE FINALLY RETURNED AND GAVE IT BACK TO HER
SO NOW ITS IN ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE
RIP
