In the end, there’s just
Me
Allow yourself to see it from my view:
Love is something you lose yourself in
Regret is when you realize, too late that
Everything has changed
And instead of losing yourself, you lost me.
Dreams are haunting your waking hours with
Yearning, but nothing can be changed.
Go on, move forward. There’s
Only so much more that can be done when
Never means forever and
Everything we had is lost.
I see a girl with emerald eyes
That glisten and ensnare
The world with it’s skies
Without the slightest care,
Free from what’s soon to destroy her.
I see a girl with eyes so cool
For they’ve seen the world fall
To armies so cruel
That they’ll take it all
Away for the chance to entrap her.
I see you with your eyes cast down
A single glance and I peruse
A distinctly permanent frown
From the emotional abuse
That you let yourself go through.
Walking through life unscathed by
Hell on earth
Only because of me
And what do I get in return?
Mute mutiny and abandonment of hope-
In this world of ours, I’m alone
With time moving on with a grudge
I look at you and reminisce on
Times where we were side by side
Holding onto hope with bare hands,
Only to find our fingertips burned-
Unusual casualties of falling in love
Together, on an island alone.
Yet here we stand with
One of us ready to move on, to live! At least
Until she feels regrettable reprieve.
There’s nothing in our world
But you and I
And feelings
Of love
That we have for each other
Used as currency
Of happiness
For the way you claim
I make you feel with a smile
Of togetherness
Because nothing here matters
Except us
But that’s because this is your fantasy
You can’t see past
Your insecurities holding you back-
A home made jail cell
Your negativity
Repelling me from your needs and desires
Criticizing me for the person I’ve become
When you remain unchanged
But most of all
Secluding me
And creating a rift
The biggest feeling of which
Is one of
Not belonging.
