It never could be

I smiled because you replied
I frowned because I smiled

Is that how it has been,
Never allowing myself  the love my heart was keen?

Could It really be,
Is it now that I see?

What a nauseating thought
What a hysterical notion

To almost fall back
Back onto  the bed we laid

The bed of nails you picked for the two of us
The bed of  nails that I made every morning

How sad it is
That I slip over your silk robe
Your silk robe of divine falsity
Indeed it had to be done

To pack my bags
To salvage what he left , himself the savage
To rescue whatever is left of me
