The Compassion I Didn't Have

We thought life would have been
so simple: flowers and hugs,
sentimental nights and songs;
then, reality came with its pain...
we were no longer that invincible,
rather two people so gullible!

The compassion I didn't have
hurts inside, now it's tearing me apart, 
I denied you more than love;
it should have been long, not so short!

Loneliness is my enemy,
you don't feel sympathy...
hell is your gift to me;
can a blind man see?

The compassion I didn't have
makes me weak, not brave;
I deserve this cruel punishment:
let me grieve in my confinement!

Does anybody, who lacks empathy,
live her life forgetting who loved her?
good memories are sweet honey,
bad memories are bitter and linger!
