True? Love

I watched thee fall from thy haughty perch.
Falling down into love with one thee can never have nor hold.
A spiral downward sloping to be gnashed upon the rocks of a false love.
She had known of the out come as she becon'd thee to the edge.
Urgeing thee to thro thyself out headlong and blind eye'd.
Evil smiles as she watched, wanting to see thy lifes' blood spill from thy veins.
Alas I tried to save thee from the devistation, grab'd for thy cape as thee flung thyself into love.
Standing helpless I had only to watch thee destroy thyself o'er it.
I truley know the feeling thee hath now for it is indeed true,
I myself hath throw'n myself into love with thee.
Never to see my love return'd.
