I Am To Abandon

I AM TO ABANDON

             Ignoring my love,
            once you walked away, I had to observe.
          Tear drops in flood left blood red eyes.
         Tears dried but heart cried on every sunrise.
          
           Suffered on disgrace:
          Disrespect, dismay to embrace.
           Relic radiation of refusal
             scattered pale glow on wilted petal.

                       Time wiped my feeling.
            Wounded heart went on healing.
         Heart turned hard, I totally forgot.
         New love, new dream life brought.

                                 Now you are at my door.
         It seemed, standing on distant offshore.
         You are asking for love begging pardon.
         Time is already gone: I am to abandon.

A very sad ending. He comes to his senses but it's too late. Awesome story, Anisha!
