Shakespeare so eloquently wrote,
"The sun for sorrow would not show its head"
It rained yesterday…. a steady downpour of raindrops outside;
inside a steady flow of tears.
The skies wept with me.
The thunder echoed the violent pain that tears me apart.
Your vicious goodbye was so abrupt and unfounded
I felt as though a part of me with died with your parting.
Our relationship disappeared
……….into the mists of the morning fog.
The tears make trails of dampness
as they slowly travel from my red, swollen eyes…
down my face to finally drop silently, but with such finality.
The fact is that I never deserved such despicable treatment
…but I always knew you believed I was unsuited.
You treat me as if I'm of depraved character
……of that, I am innocent.
You almost had me convinced, however;
I have always been true to myself, true to my ideas,
….and I have followed my heart.
Whereas, you on the other hand chose duty over truth,
deceit over honor and blindness over enlightenment.
Though for a short time, I actually fooled myself into believing that maybe….
just maybe…but alas,
my hopes have been dashed, our friendship torn apart.
My heart and my soul, forever scarred…
By your deception and condemnation.
Just remember, that regardless of how you feel for me
How you despise or curse me….
I gave you my heart, and my love….
First as a friend, then as a lover, then again as a friend…
though I know these things are meaningless to you,
and the reality of that is difficult to face
But face it I will….
with a clear understanding of the pain which can be caused
by someone's deception and intolerance.
You see this end in reality isn't an endBut actually a new beginning for me.
