Happy

Am I happy you're gone?
Happy alone
Lonely king tattered throne
Empty heart
Empty home
Dreams with nightmares
Alone for years 
In the darkness  only tears
Thoughts keep coursing
 Through my brain
Obsession at best
Difficult to explain
My pride you tested
My heart can't mend
I'll never trust you
My once true friend
 I spilled  my emotions 
On deaf ears my words fell
Like unfilled wishes in wishing wells
Arrogance and pride 
Loves such a waste
Thank you for parting
That's just my fate

David, the hurt of losing a love so well expressed. I especially like the last two lines. Well done. All the best~ Warren
