When he met her she was broken, but she hid it quite well
He could see through the mask, the pain that lay dormant within her heart
It cried out to him, he could see it through her eyes, although she smiled
He could heal her, he could posses her, he could love her
Although she was hesitant at first, what was left of her heart she gave willingly to him
She fell into the deep cool pool of his captivating eyes, his every word melted on her tongue
Her mind began to race with fantasies of their love, and unspoken passions
For love her he did, but his lust for life was greater
He was her world, and she was just something in his
The words of affection became less frequent, the longing to love her diminished
Until all that was left were photographs, and broken promises
As she stood before him, pleading for his love with tears in her eyes
He knew that he was the cause of this sorrow, and although he knew that it would destroy her
He crushed her soul, as he said he no longer wanted her
The light in her eyes vanished, and the girl he once knew died that day
