_Fond
temporary, speedy
like a bullet was she through my chest, I grew attached to,
as she wormed her way out the exit wound
I know I say it often, but it was one of the several,
deaths I've dove.
painful, my heart is tender,
raw yet ever honest like a lover,
and if I did not feel pain,
oh what then, could I feel?
paying for my great crime against a broken one,
that I had smashed apart to find a place for her to fit inside,
crumbling like a glass vase in slow-mo, so I devoted myself,
to be a servant,
but the more she forgives me the more guilty I feel,
for the more she forgives me the more I'm reminded,
that,
I,
committed,
a,
crime,
against my love, and against my truth and fondness,
out of spite and excuses yet, I betrayed her
and thus twisting the knife laid by another, even further
a shot in the foot of my fervor, my passion laid to drown in a puddle
and it kills me now to see her with another
knowing,
her greatness could have been mine at some time,
were I not,
so foolish.
