Aphasia From a Broken Heart

I cannot show it. I have promised.
Building up in the shores of my thoughts and soul,
An overflowing ocean of emotions I'll risk,
To drown in my own sorrows and tears, in folds.

Tirelessly I longed but only in secret I'll whisper,
I am haunted by the essence of you, this fear sips deeper,
You crept everywhere in sight, endlessly, searching for her figure,
As those beats grew faint and this ocean grew bigger,

What of me, "Oh God! Please do your worst!
I will be far away in this ever state of Cursed,
Nothing said but I still feel this agonising thirst,
As my breath utter those words, in knives I immersed.

I'll hide in the abyss. I will keep myself hidden.
The truth. In infinity I will hurl.
Sawed off chains from your heart and set it to Eden.
I'll stay silent forever so you can have the World.
