Who Am I To You?

Leave your mark and walk away
Turn your back
So you can't see how it spreads through me.
That bruise that internalized
From passion to pain.
Cover your ears, pick up the pace
So you can't hear
The wolves howling over their prey
Let the fog grow thick
Let the darkness fall
Engulfing all of your senses
Until you are disconnected 
From you, from us, from life.
Indifference and selfishness.
When tomorrow's sun rises
Come back to see if I'm still here
See if I'm still me.
I fear you won't.
My heart remains open
It will bleed until it's dry
Like the bones you left of me.
Bury them deep in your soul
And they'll weigh it down
Until you shame your infamy
And learn to love again.
