You Are My Curse

I had to let it all go, The day and night, Their hours ran too slow. It was more than just a fight. I trusted you and knew you, My love succumbed to the worst, Faith and loyalty just wouldn’t do. You became my curse. I was pulled down to Earth’s plane, And judgment did set in. Then new days begin. I stood parallel as many went insane. My heart drenched and my soul crunched, I couldn’t let my heart take this very much. I died and I died losing each endless breath, I swallowed the victory and ate your death. You reaped and I sowed, But I saw no one grow, Not even you. What was I to do? I let it go very slow, Now I am all grown, And I’m on my own. I died watching you go. I will always remember begging mercy, I will always know this pain, You are my curse you see, And nothing did you gain. I can never just be alright, I can never love you the same again. I died watching you go out of sight. You are my curse and forever in my heart you made an end.
