Open heart, closed mind
I let you in
You destroyed me
Like a toxin, you tore me apart
From the inside out, your poison coursed in my veins

I fell into your bottomless trap
At first a beautiful freefall
Weightlessness
Like nothing could touch me
Invincibility
Then my free fall turned into a dive
Pulled down to the darkness below
Pure sorrow
Like scuba diving with no oxygen
Breathless
Constricted
Pulled into the nothingness
Empty
You woke me up from my fairytale
Closed heart, Open mind
