Crushed

Hey, did you hear about the girl

that seems to cry all night long?

She’s been hiding underneath

the poisoned covers

that cause her to hold in her pain.

She only wanted him to love her,

but he told her he had to leave her.

She was sucking the life out of him

and she wanted too much

too quick.

He wanted out

and now she crys all night.

She can’t stop her weeping.

Her heart is crushed.

It’s worse than that of crushed pineapple.

Her heart has been put through

the food chopper.

It’s been crushed like a tiny bug.

Honey to water,

she drowned in her sorrows.

She keeps wondering why, why, why?

She didn’t know she pushed too hard.

She had forced her love

and he only pushed her away.

So now sorrow overwhelms her

and her heart is empty, except for

the crushed jagged ice

that is tearing a hole in her heart.

So she’s been hiding under the covers

for weeks on end.

She wants to end herself

as she feels worthless

without him.  She cries out in agony

for the false love

she once thought was real.

Yet, he didn’t love her really.

What will her future bring?

New love?

Or will she end it?

Is she crushed that bad?
