Dilemma

Although you thought it loud to me How unwanted I would always be After you swept me off my feet To only toss me to the streets Although you cursed my truthful care And rare faith that’s unfound here And upon bruised my love so true Real love that chose to care for you You took away my smiling face With it you took my best grimace And was seized my laughter too Along with it my feelings true My heart is stressed from cursing thee It pounds; it beats as it grows weak My whole being hates your memories Irony; craves your company An outcast lost in your own heart I weep, I wail in woman’s land And thus has none to console me In all this pain, that’s all but sweet Although your eyes still comfort me Lost in your gaze, I find relief – Although your smile still consoles me Rejection wakes my unbelief When in your face I find kindness Warmth and embrace of loveliness Just then withdrawn, your heart and care You seek not I, you seek one else An empty box, a hungry hole Has swallowed all to remain so I despise you so much my dear But would give all to have you near Aggrandized hurt, and agony Can one feel so, and keep “to breathe”? Each time the thought, “not having thee” Nearby enough, so I’d be free Thief of always, beautiful curse You make me soar, then make me fall Eternal dream I wield awake All yours to give, more so to take.
