Dismayed
Though it may be cruel
I somehow am fooled
Her departure in heartache
I never understood
Though I suppressed
What I try to hold inside
your hand brought forth
A part of me that had died
Should’ve been guarded
For I knew what was to be
To my own folly I relinquish
Fully venerable to thee
I felt too much in her summer gaze
as her undertow ****** me in
blinded in the waters
entraped in her waves
Though I long to be free
To escape from the mind
I travel onward haunted
Like the days I left behind
Though I am made a fool
I cannot help but to think
The coldness that follows
Eternally to be truly hollow
To heaven I question
Why must I face dismay?
To God above I wish to
Take this life away
I do not want to walk alone
For there is no joy in such
Forever I am reminded
Of the pain to be ensued
The last two lines do not rhyme on purpose to symbolize an uncomfortable and cold end.
