Written Tragedy

A glimpse of heavenly bliss taken away | My heart sinks as I can longer find | For you, I willingly have trusted | But you left, not even a glance back | Didn't care to see the pain | Didn't care to see the fragile heart | To which a piece of it was broken | Since the day you chose to be careless | Sometimes I just want to give up | It just hurts me for you no longer cherish | Why can’t I have that same mentality? | Yet, foolishly, here I am still holding on | All I’m stuck with are distant memories | Yet, the absolute and bitter part of it all | Are the majestic memories you left with me | Ones that are worth to hold onto for a lifetime | But every time I think about it, I relive it | Every time I relive it, I feel my heart bleed | Something so beautiful just to be thrown away | It been better, had it never happened | But you're not here to treat my wound | Oblivious to my agonizing pain | Only because I chose to conceal the truth | Masking it within to not complicate your life | But one can’t help but ask | How could you have not noticed? | Would you intentionally left me in the dark? | To become estranged from a bond we once built on? | It is only then, I begin to put a wall | A wall that will never be broken down | To not only protect myself from others | But to protect others from me | No longer able to trust or depend | Unwilling to give my love or affection | Who really knows what lies behind that smile? | Everything I once believed in, cease to exist | Nothing but words of deception; acts that kill | Countless encounters, but only a few | To whom I gave my all; my inner self | It’s not easy for me, for I don’t trust many | But only because a promise was made | That you were the real deal; the true friend | One who could not be altered to turn the other way | But you have abandoned me; left me but a few words | Left me when I needed you the most | Leaving me stranded in the midst of confusion | Made me to believe that I was unworthy | Undeserving of an explanation or goodbye | Initially, you rescued me from my own darkness | You helped me to see my possible future in bright colors… | Now, the only inspiration I have that keeps me going | Is hopelessly writing about my once past tragedy |
