Suddenly, The End

Far too short of a time

Were you mine.

 

You retreated from my embrace

Before I could but see your frantic face.

 

You left me here to rot

In my confused woes, I kid you not.

 

*How could you leave me?

Alone, you thought you set me free?*

All I have is this worthless heart,

That of which you broke apart.

 

Why, why did you leave?

You left me with a tear-soaked sleeve.

All this emotion should be yours.

It’s for you that my mind still soars.

 

This love I have for you,

It will never simply retreat.

All I want from you

Is a reason to feel complete.

 

I only wish for you to return

These feelings I’ve put in an urn.

 

And on my shelf they lie:

They will return if ever you try

To be with me again.

Don’t let this be the end.
