Constanza-I Never Should'Ve Stayed

When the night’s façade begins to fade, and all is well with war and peace, my heart’s torment shall increase. I knew I never should've stayed, when stars collide they seek not hate, this hell on earth is my born fate. With each new breath I displayed, I knew of simple words to write, no longer blinded by war’s sight. I thought your love was my crusade, and with each moment I ask why, your pity makes me want to cry. So why does pain always invade? you say you need me to survive- I need your hurt to stay alive. When the night’s façade begins to fade, I knew I never should've stayed- With each new breath I displayed, I thought your love was my crusade. So why does pain always invade? December 4, 2017

So sad, Laura. I really understand the depth of each line. A great poem perfectly rhymed.
