A despicable you

Can never know

How much hurt

You’ve caused my soul

I will not share

I will not tell

You have no right

No right to me at all

Everything I wanted

My every dream came true

I wanted but for nothing

Yet desired still for you

I simply didn’t care

Or closed my mind to know

How much better off I am

Without you in my life

I accelerated as fast as I could. I needed to get to him before it was too late. The thick heavy gates could be closed and there would be no way in. I sat at the wheel and urged myself to go faster. Faster! After a lifetime had passed, I pulled up at the entrance. He was there! I ran to him and pleaded. I’m so sorry for anything I may have done. Please forgive me. Please love me. All shreds of dignity vanished along with the day as I presented myself to him. With a coldness that pained me more than any scolding could ever do, he told me to leave and never return. It’s over.

Over.

for you
for our friendship
for love
for what cannot be
for memories
for desire
for wanting to be with you
for your lack of care
