The Queen of Broken Hearts

Given the choice, would you feel everything or nothing at all?
Build bridges or put up a wall?
Shrink within yourself or stand tall?
Leave forever or go running when they call?

Would you implode and crumble inside?
Would you explode and make everyone hide?
Would you bury the version of you that died?
Would you swallow every tear you’ve cried?

Given a choice, would you forgive and forget?
Would you bring them regret?
Your lack of action signaling a threat
A heart for a heart and you never forget a debt

Soaking up the pillows with righteous pain
Swearing to never fall in love again
Not enough words exist to explain
As you feel yourself slowly going insane

The path of no return chooses you, not the other way around
This new fountain of strength found
Screaming with all you’ve got but not making a sound
The queen of broken hearts has been crowned
