All That Remains

how devastating love feels when it leaves but so precious when it comes

All that remains is shards,
shards of my hourglass heart.
My heart that trusted you,
trusted you to keep it safe.

All that remains is trust,
trust that held our relationship together.
Relationship that stood and lasted,
lasted the rollercoaster longest.

All that remains is nothing,
nothing of absolutely everything.
Everything turned to dust,
dust that poisons our lives.

All that remains is dust,
dust that makes up my heart.
My heart bursts of pain,
pain of being so loved and loving back.

All that remains is shards,
shards of my hourglass heart.
My heart that trusted you,
trusted you to keep it safe.
