What could I have said? Holding down my feelings, My sighs are tragic. Where is grieving going to get me? You provide the same comfort Orpheus did to Eurydice, And how history challenged Them nevertheless. I could blur it out; piece by piece. Wild, intimate, restless; I’ll set myself ablaze, Because timing is the face of cruelty; wishful thinking. I’m putting myself in An illusion, and it’s where I am going wrong, or is it? The prophecy stands high, I’m just hallucinating, Where you are enough to Fill me in with your uncertainty. You have rebellion in your breath, And you play with fire, I like the warmth, but fear the heat it eventually turns into, And when you started, It was the beginning Of the end.

I should have known better.
