Love Poem: Burned Bridges

Burned Bridges

My pride is bruised
My heart’s been used
My mind’s abused
I’m so confused

Your love had ridges
You burned our bridges
Ignored my wishes
Threw me like dishes

I once felt whole
you torched my soul
If heart break’s the goal
you played a good role

I sink into sadness
I echo the madness
Facedown in my mattress
Like a Hollywood actress

Romantic malpractice 
Your love’s like a cactus
I’m pricked by your thorns
And I drown in your storms 

You were a lesson to learn
Touched your fire til I burned 
You turned my heart into an urn 
Now you’re no longer my concern
