Was It Ever Ours?

love was never ours to begin with.
the light that you brought
was the iridescent of my
desultory pit of dismal
you gave your hands,
conscientiously i seek
for a mask behind fictitious frowns.
i pushed you away
i was lethal
you could see the venom
emanating right trough my lies
when i said i don't miss you

have a great day
