The Aftermath

You've left an irreparable scar
emotions all scattered afar.
The worst part is seeing you, 
so happy,  Such a torturous view. 
Thus I simply say go away
You lead my mind and heart astray.
For now I bid farewell to love
As I give it a powerful shove
to the side, and give a warm welcome
to loveless passion.  What have I become?
Altered personality, loss of morality
All caused by my emotional frugality.
Perhaps one day I shall love again
Only time will tell if and when.
