Massacre of Goodness
I know nothing of the goodness of love1
 
 only the down sides:2
 
 Unfulfilled3
 
 shattered dreams4
 
 and broken promises5
 
 Strolling down a lonely street where the shadows keep to themselves.6
 
 Drowning in a bottomless pit of hate.7
 
 The waters engulf me with a sense of hopelessness.8
 
 Oh it kills me9
 
 my soul is dead.10
 
 It chokes me,11
 
 it slits my throat12
 
 I'm bleeding.13
 
 My heart is exposed.14
 
 I'm alive barely, but my heart isn't beating.15
 
 It's been locked, closed.16
 
 Never to be open, it will never be repaired because it'll just break again.17
 
 These love leeching demons 18
 
 have robbed off my joy.19
 
 Eating needlessly and greedily.20
 
 Chained to the darkside fo love who owns me.21
 
 Love is a concept of the mind.22
 
 Those without it live and die in silence,23
 
 are blind.24
 
 They make it seem sweet,25
 
 when it actually leaves you empty.26
 
 Tears no longer flow with water.27
 
 Tears have cried out in pain dripping no longer clear,28
 
 but drops of red rain.29
 
 Their lips are red from the blood30
 of the ones they "loved".31
 
 Hearts in their jars32
 
 beating frantically33
 
 none of them stop.34
 
 All the ones decieved by their35
 
 trickery of words36
 
 deceptive terms.37
 
 They haven't learned 38
 
 because their hearts still yearn.39
 
 No, no I haven't seen the goodness of love40
 
 only the blood bleeding 41
 
 from the tragic massacre of really good hearts.
