Lying in bed late one night unable to fall asleep, I had this exact experience.
I just had a sudden stinging pain in my chest;
it was my heart, no doubt.

As I sucked in the air around me the the pain went deeper in with it.
Yet, all I could do was laugh;
how right this felt,
how timely.

At last you are just a piece of dead tissue,
another scar in my heart like the rest.

For the life of me, I will love again
