Tears

A Tetractys.

Tears
Fall slowly
As I sit
And he watches
He doesn't even know why I'm crying

Rose
My thorns
They prick me
I'm bleeding out
He offers me no aid as I'm dying

Love
Shattered
Broken glass
In our window
Why must you always loathe and despise me?

Stars
So bright
Emeralds
A moonlit night
Forever thought our love would thusly be

But my arrogance overshadowed us
I sought dreams that
Had eclipsed
Your own
True

A selfish need to be unique and free
Led me astray
Away from
Soulmate
You

What can I do to regain precious trust?
Plant a flower
Sow a seed
Purpose
Aim

I'll light my own path with honest effort
To prove to you
There exists
Our old
Flame
