Prelude of Goodbye

Your words serve no purpose as I glance into the moonlit sky. My heart steps back as you question why my apologies are turning into a prelude of goodbye. Regretting the head games I played solely on myself. Seeing my tears turn into fortune with you dancing around my memory's wealth. Believing I found happiness in someone I never learned to trust. Tainted feelings captured understanding our love had only the characteristics of lust. My mind quick to be selfish now, wanting to regain no less than all my heart's misguided pride. My heart in truth, a foolish stronghold, waiting to ask a liar why he lied.
