Limerence

I thought I will be Venus Steady and strong Yet I go away I know I was wrong When I see your eyes Not smiling anymore Did I drown you Trying to bring you the shore ? My hands clutch The air that held you As you dry your tears Reaching to hold me too But I hide Like I do every time How can I face you After all those crimes I made you sad When I promised happiness And now I leave Leave you with this madness Of heartbreak and pain Lost innocence and lone tear You will move on Just a little more to bear But I will stay Right where I left you behind You will always be the anchor In cruel, a word kind And as you write a new song About a different love I will write my final about you And burn it on a stove....
