Unbreakable

Beautiful boy in your slumber sleep
The face of an angel and a heart so deep
A portrait of perfection with lips so soft
From which words were spoken that cannot be forgot

This truth with no intentions of pain
An unsettling knowledge from which I gain.

An unconditional love once so pure
Now tainted with the darkest dark
Now beweldered and ultimately unsure

What you feel for me now you are so right
As my selfish ways have deminished our love with each passing night
Is it possible to fix this? Is there an absolution in sight?

Prey tell for sleepless nights lay ahead
A heart in agony cries in bed
But I respect your decision and know you cannot be led

Shattered illusions, all pretenses fail
Now our love stands naked and I question its prevail.
Far I cannot undo what has been done, I cannot mend your damaged heart
But my love remains endless
and shines through that darkest dark.
