I will always remember white roses

I will always remember white roses

I am trapped
In a bitter-sweet space between
Your love and your lies.
Confined to myself,
This heartbreaking interval between
Loving and letting go.
Finding a new direction,
Preparing myself for loving anew
Without secretly longing for you.
Searching for the path
Leading me to inner peace within
The sanctity of my soul.
Paving the way
To a future forged
In the spirit of sincerity.
A piece of my heart
Reserved for you,
The threat to my sanity it poses.
So much love locked away for good
But I will always remember
White roses.
