the wake of our dream

[7:30femmefatale]

our paradoxes
bind us in enamoured misery
smoothly, the unrefined sands of time
course backwards
in my mind..through our history
what you were to me
strength
when you came to me
hungry
you afforded me your
warmth
even after
she stole your sun
and somehow let me become
your one
my love, early and mighty
my soul.. punch drunk
and sick
scary to me.. how easily
our pollyanna.. purity
became malignant
and you worked
SO hard
at mending the fibers of my
threadbare love
while i made us
feeble..
and now failure
tarnishes
my undeserving crown
scrape away my pretty scum
shine for someone else
really..
i always let you down

thank you sexydelta and CK, for reading and sharing your feedback. it's funny how sometimes the things we write are SO personal to us.. and can feel so narrowed down in terms of it applying to our own situations.. it's refreshing to see others are respondent to it and are able to relate their own situations and emotions. good stuff.
