Mistaken
the memories are slowly fading
a momentary respite from reality
i am back to where I started
a permanent relapse into insanity
I have been judged and found wanting
left alone to wander
in my solitude I reflect
past, present and future to ponder
the silence has deafened me
dead to the world you know
must’ve chosen differently
consequences I now sow
what love suddenly abandons?
set aside and buried
a forgotten space in your graveyard
a sight both sad and lurid
this is not a frivolity
I thought I was known better
this soul has self-destructed
agonizing, broken and bitter
