Almost Three Years' Love

I loved these scented lips
That you now restrain from me.
Night’s misplaced sin
That danced in your eyes
I blessed.
The hollow ache that watched me
Sleep
Wants the “us” gone forever.

Running in this night
That’s slowly stripped to day,
My fire and water I see
In agony.
I see you as my yesterday,
Gone from my today,
With fire and unbearable water
I drown your love goodbye. 

I will part
From your tomorrow,
Distant enough so as 
Not to care,
In the eye of departure
I will leave
Behind 
The addicting feel
Of almost three years’ love.

The telling of a goodbye to a past love, who still cares. But goodbye were the last words. Romance to the end>James
