Take away my sight
So I won't have to see
Both him and you
Take away my ears
So I can't hear
You saying to him
What I wish was to me
Numb my body
So I may not feel
The soft touch
I know will never be mine
But leave my heart
Leave its scarred shell of a former being to rest
Lest its torn-tattered ways
Crumble into the dust
Becoming
Lastly
Finally
One with the oblivion
