Standing in ambient darkness,
My blood runs cold, congealing -
Tiny rainbow soaring through the sky,
I was a little butterfly fluttering by -
Remember when
You used to love me? -
Sliding my hesitant hand into yours,
Eyes of trust search for a foundation -
Clearing my mind and breathing deep
Doesn't aid me in the attempt to sleep; -
I coerced you to faithfully believe
That true love was possible to achieve -
And here I am, still confined
By a fact which I can't accept; -
Hello once again, dearest diary,
Been awhile since my prior entry; -
Reflecting on the times gone by,
Heartbreak envelops what was once -
Never again will I think to trust
One whose heart is filled with lust -
Many times over I've been senselessly hurt
By your making me feel as worthless as dirt; -
Finding myself slighted once again by love,
I come to this ledge to ponder and mourn -
Embrace me, my dear, this final time
While my life's substance still pulsates, -
I don't believe the words he said,
Saying how deeply he was in love; -
Don't you dare fling that word!
Once and again I may have heard -
You were never good enough, he said,
And I let his lies penetrate my head -
Don't speak and say you love me
When I know in my heart you don't; -
If the tears I shed daily
Could answer all the queries -
Lies aren’t lies...
They’re undisputed truths; -
Here lie the shattered remnants
Of my freshly perished heart -
Bittersweet memories issue forth
To submerge my heart's labyrinth -
Love was not enough
To salvage what we had;
