Bittersweet

the kisses were oh so sweet
they lined the path to my empty heart
the cycle of reincarnation
the nirvana of a brand new start

but now the kisses have faded away
the path has become strewn with litter
my dreams again now left empty
your sweetness has turned, oh so bitter

the claims were made, thoughts justified
this is not what you truly wanted
it was best, that's what you said
our growing love, now growth is stunted

will this be the final kiss of death
I fear this is our last goodbye
now in reflections I see your smile
my heart is broke and needs to cry

this is the only way to mend the pain
the only way to make complete
the love we shared now drenched in rain
memories of you, so bittersweet
