Forever Changed

Please! This isn't supposed to happen. You and I. A team forever. You the heart, me the captain. Your blue eyes watered, tinged with salt. I sat broken. It was my fault. Watching you die slowly, too; I sat silently in pain. I was at a loss. No idea what to do. Nothing would ever be the same. Wounded I rose. Dazed in silence, I walked away. You called out, weakly. There was nothing more to say. I stumbled toward the coolest thing I've ever owned. To transport the saddest soul I had ever known. From your freckled face, I walked alone. Your heart no longer mine to own. Never have I been so shattered. Years spent hurting over that. My life, flavorless. No longer mattered. A life vibrant, now seemed flat. Only time would bring clarity. You are beautiful, but you're lost. Someday found, just not by me. I tried. Oh my god....the cost. I feel the permanent wounds inside. My heart bleeds constantly, daily. Feelings unable to hide. My own actions. Same ones failing thee. Raven haired girl I loved completely, eternal spot on my soul. It destroyed me utterly, woefully. Catalyst for me. Only now, am I whole. In this agony, a truth to me spoken. No man's life replete. Without heart, at least once broken. Love's journey. Trip incomplete. -Angel Fatale-
