Nevermore
The trepidation of dread released my haunted dreams.
I carry nightmares of long lost apprehensions bleeding into
your core. My essence, you have shattered and your essence I have
protected. You threw me out on the clothes line and forgot
my name once again. How many times do I need to learn?
I have failed in the area of romance and I have failed at
keeping you near me during cold nights. I was your cold nights
and you were my warm days. Please think about this one
more time…I needed you like breath and I broke for you like
loss. Your loss was me and you could care less. My loss will always
be you and I will never break free from my inhibitions. You restrain
your words out of spite and I hinder the love we could have had.
Too deep inside a disaster yet too surfaced to remain adjacent.
Obstruction has begun and it will never cease to end. I have suppressed
all the good moments because you prohibit me from remembering them.
One mournful goodbye has cremated my aspirations. I loved you
like roses and said goodbye to you like nevermore.
