As I looked wistfully into her eyes
I looked past the chaos that ruled her mind;
I should have seen the madness in disguise -
How could I have been so blind?
I kick myself, I should have known,
When you said us against the world; I never thought
Staying with you might end with me being alone.
As it turns out, that was your preconceived plot.
You break my bones, ignore my cries;
All because you think I've lied.
Afterwards you always make an oath to self-revise;
And I choose to ignore how many parts of me have died.
And so it is here I am held, bound,
Confined with a creature incapable of love.
My once buoyant spirit has drowned;
Please forgive me, O wise spirits above.
