Tears fell at the thoughts,
The way you faded, memories,
Whispered words, "The End".
Are there now regrets?
You broke what was beautiful,
Best in another.
I hear her voice still,
Trapped from within nothingness
Some hearts never heal.
She murmurs your name,
Her last true love a turncoat;
Final words a knife.
"Let us tell the truth:
I was simple to forget--
Used up femme fatale.
Did they please you well?
Submissive to your fancies,
Easily dismissed.
Did they please you well?
Our love's sacrifice
Moaning its last death.
Orgasmic ashes,
They seem to provide comfort.
I am no better.
Hatred burns brightly;
They say Hell hath no fury.
I long to destroy.
I despise them all,
Giving you what you needed
In ways I could not.
I was worth more.
You raged at snobbish judgment,
Not even seeing.
Meant to die parted,
We won't perish for love's sake.
Do not weep for us.
Promises shattered,
"I never meant it," you said,
When nothing mattered.
I think I mourn you.
Unmasking your deceptions,
My heart won't weep now.
When I think of you--
You taught me of betrayal,
All I need to learn.
I won't trust again,
Though I never knew I did.
Innocence shattered. "
We are friends, of course,
Behind the broken pieces
"I'm sorry" can't heal.
We dreamed a lifetime,
Yet we lived in days and weeks.
False love is not real.
I've wept my goodbyes;
Your truths are a last solace
After endless lies.
Her fate still unknown,
She somehow never left you.
Above the darkness
I heard her whisper.
"Take care of our Imogene
Until we meet again."
