Till Forever Ends

I have no words to express what my mind did to you.
I had no right though, temptation drove me ahead.
Your thoughts you said to me still haunt me now.
The truth of the words at first you had no love.
I betrayed you,
However, you shared that you had fallen deep.
Passion we shared and that I took advantage.
Advantage of understanding for my secret desires,
Advantage of your love I thought you always had.
I betrayed trust,
From the first, though you shared there was none.
You followed through with my interest at heart.
However, I was completely selfish in my perception.
Deeply I knew my actions would have recourse.
Lost in deep desire,
However, I feel your reception was of jealousy.
I also knew in my heart we would not be forever.
My actions broke our bond, sooner and deeply.
Only you and I know of my discretions lost.
I am guilty,
Only I feel the complete and total loss of all.
This thing I shelter within my heart and mind.
Will haunt and strip my being and soul forever.
This is my cross to bear and share with no one else.
My mind bewildered,
So hear my plea of remorsefulness within your soul.
I am truly sorry for the pain and agony of mental stress.
However, maybe you have forgiven me without forgetting.
I will never forget or ever forgive myself until forever ends.
I await my destruction.

So sincere, and the poem is arranged in a very peculiar way, I mean, visually, does it stand for something or did the lines just fell into that "E-Mountain" form naturaly? Great one thanks for sharing!!!
