I Gave All by Ella Kay Looking back, I should have seen the end rushing forward. Blinded by “rosy” hues coming from a childs heart, I did not see, You walking away. I believed words given to pacify, as fact. Excuses, accepted with a smile. Living in my dream watching the nightmare begin. Hearing the door close on my heart. The sound crushing my spirit. Slamming my soul to the floor, soundlessly ripping my love from my arms. Curled in pain, tears raining from red-rimmed eyes I question my part in this separation. Could I, should I, did I? The answer comes slowly... I gave all. Nothing withheld. And in return Was shattered into pieces by the hand that held my heart. I gave All.
