Hopelessness Prevails.

I endured your abuse, your torment for far too long. I tolerated your misuse, your neglect of my soul. I assumed you'd be the one that would make me whole, but now I realize it was me your eyes despised. They pierced my heart with daggers, I was blinded by your words. You've jaded the remnants of my sanity, yet still I long for more. I put up with your game and played until I reached my defeat, I marched to the beat of your relentless conceit. Your stubborness was attractive to me, as I felt I'd found someone who could unequivocally compete. You could have been a contender, I begged for mercy without surrender. My blackened heart refuses to pick up and resume, after all the hurt you have caused, the regrets they will consume. The remnants of my sanity and what was left of my dignity. I've been swallowed in a sea of pity, in which I'll drown for all eternity. I ask myself why I allowed this to persist, you insisted and I permissed, I see now that I was simply blinded by your kiss. You came along when I needed a saviour, someone to turn to in my hour of need. It's evident now that your motive was greed, you desired to be heard and denied my word. Burdened no longer, I wonder if I will one day be stronger. The logic and reason that I've hidden away, tell me our season has since gone astray. The weather has changed and our love has dissipated, faded to black; I just wish you would come back. We have gone off track and now there's no turning back, one day, I hope you see that all the love in me, will never subside, but by then it will be far too late. Your words and hatred have already sealed our fate. I attempted to apologize but you said I had lost my chance, so from this day forth, I'll reclusively dance. You committed treason, battered my heart, given me no reason, I wish I had seen your true colours from the start. Committed grand theft and just like a hit and run, you argued your case and once you thought you had won, you abandoned me and now it's plain to see, my wishes were never granted. Like a fairy tale, I assumed you were enchanted. You robbed me of my light, stripped me of my desire, I'm all out of the fight, it's due time that we retire. I'll leave you alone, no more sitting in my throne. I will merely be a shadow of the love you once admitted, in response you say I'm crazy and that I should be committed. I will not call, but will never hesitate to answer yours. And if you should ever fall, please condescend and call. I'll be here to wash away your fears, never forget these months that would have surely turned to years. Off I go, to live out the rest of my life on my own, I'll always remember the kindness you'd shown. I'll love you forever, in my heart we'll remain together, you think that you're much too clever, but you've led to the demise that killed the happiness in my eyes.
