Wane-Farewell Love Poem
Date: 6/?/00
(For Tory)
A tarnished beauty, smothered in lies,
it's all that's left, dead to my eyes.
My heard bound to a lattice of spite,
stuck in a shadow, can't see the light.
I don't want to be like this, this isn't me,
but I can't go back to what I used to be.
We both are lost on an impossible quest,
there's no hope, it seems, no rest.
It's not your fault, nor is it mine.
I can't go any farther, the end of the line.
I never wanted this, all I wanted was you,
there's too much pain, what must I do?
Maybe you never knew, will never know,
maybe it's better that I just go.
Get on with my life, let you slip away,
full of regrets, but I'm better, today.
Maybe next time, maybe you'll see,
who I am, who you are, and what you mean to me.
Though love has fled, one thing holds true,
I will always be there for you.
