Vain

Loving you will have always been in vain
You entered my life
And I knew nothing of pain
Not a shiver of strife

Maybe I won in the end
Maybe loving you wasn't the worst crime
Then tell me why
You only seemed to disappear more and more with time.

Not a single signal
No flashes of red before the crash
Your touches used to linger
Now too touch to much is just a glance

My heart races when I see you
You smile in my direction
Everyone suspects I know what to do
A common misconception

I retaliate to your wicked games
Sick played stale mate
Neither one of us winners
Chained to this frayed scope of hate

You notice not my acts to gather attention
An attempt to result in a reaction
Every effort led to end in failed futility
Yet I'm captivated by your lack of traction

To be wanted was to be loved
Yet you loved and grew averse to my bid of allure
In my heart I still hold a vacuous void freshly carved
And fully burdened with my lore

To love you was not a mistake
To love you will always be in vain
To love me in a manner where every desired truth was fake
Is the only reason I cannot now love without being in pain
