My lady, do you take me for a **** fool? My heart burns with eternal anguish, shattered knowing your lies. That unknown cologne that rests on your clean white blouse, I know. I know it isn’t mine. Deep down in the depths of my heart, I knew the truth. I was just a coward, escaping the disgusting, hellish reality that lay between us. Darling… oh how I wish I could call you that sweet, sweet name again… Your infidelity coats my body in a deep, warm crimson. I can’t handle this. Slowly but surely, I fall apart. I cannot help but break down in low pitched sobs. One can only hold so much in their heart before their love withers away, fading in the darkness of reality. My lady, what did you truly want from me? The tears running down my cheek glisten, while my heart turns as black as obsidian, for I am no longer the man from before. That is what you taught me, my lady, as you so gently implore. The cuts I carved in haste today will fade by dawn, in desperate fury.

A Truth I Feared
How long has it been, since your blissful presence vanished from my profoundly wretched existence? I cannot imagine a life without you, yet here I remain; dreading each day, each hour, each fleeting second, until I find you. Your body, your soul, easing my icy cold heart with the tenderness of the warm spring flowers we used to see. Did this mean nothing to you? Did we mean nothing to you? What pain have I caused for you to abandon me, my love? I seek comfort in the bottles scattered across the floor. Chaotic. Disorganized. Drinking, hoping the problem finds its own way out. You’ve always called these traits “repulsive”… but how would you react if you saw me now? My life, so utterly disgraceful, becoming the type of man you could never want. Would you accept the type of man I have become, or will you break my heart once again?

Would You Accept Me Now?
The sun shines bright my love... You would've loved to see this. But it's clear you chose another spouse, but I cannot truly blame you. For I was a terrible man, drowning in his own misery. Life wasn't far from abysmal, and yet I shouldn't have shared even a shred of this burden. Cuts and scars lay across, all over my body. The regret aching... Darling, I've become a better man... However, I cannot undo my wrongings, nor fix the past. But when your in heaven, I'll be in hell, praying for your mercy.

Too Late to Save Us
My love, I see you are with someone else. I do not expect you to remember me or our memories together. It is okay... I am okay. As long as you are happier, cheery, and free from the misery I put you through... I am okay. Life is one worth living. Even without you. I shall accept myself and be true, even without...you. While I miss your sweet kisses, I know it is okay to be alone. Sometimes, I wonder if we would ever make it... The answer was always there... "No."

Acceptance
"I stand at you grave, alone. Why...? That is my only question. Why did you have to leave me too? I cannot help but shed my blood for you. Holding the knife up against my neck, I feel its blade. Icy and dull, like my shattered heart. I miss you. I miss your warm eyes, soft skin, and delicate lips. I push in the blade, slowly inching towards inevitable death Drips of dark red. Deeper. And deeper. Countless strangers surround me, trying to stop what cannot be undone. They do not understand. Nor I do not care. For you were the love of my life. My one and only... Just you wait darling... I am coming. "I will meet you soon"

I Will Meet You Soon, Dear
The 'heart' The 'mind' The 'soul' That is what makes 'me' who I am. If you were to leave... I am not sure of what I would be. Would I be a body, Filled with nothing but flesh? For you are... My 'heart' My 'mind' My 'soul'

You Make 'Me'
Before making a choice that you will inevitably regret, make sure you truly understand what you are doing. If not, then you are already done. For your actions will haunt you for as long as time will endure.
