I've wished her well as best I could and yet
I know my words reek of a poisoned kiss
Between a soul so split in half they lost
True meaning ere she ever knew my heart.

Reconciliation means I've lost my
Purpose? If I ever truly had one.

I fell in love so fast, possessed of life
Liberation in her mind, her fingers
Twined and tugging on my breath, her beauteous
Words. Words, words, words. So many words for me.

Forgiveness comes to those whose trust is spent
Deserving of a death by loneliness
Found burning in the hottest hours of light
Cooled by the hands of those they've hurt so bad
