Unfinished


It’s hard to depict a picture when the image isn’t fully visible. When the effort isn’t yet tangible and the touch isn’t physical. However, once the idea is enough flourished one can begin to show nourish- ment among the crowds the tall towers all around. I hate you. Despise you with every fiber of my being is my mind playing tricks on me, can I believe in what I’m seeing? You’re falling apart and there’s No way I can help It’s all my fault I’d like to bring it upon myself. I am the one to blame Don’t try to change my mind, nonetheless it’s all The same. Nothing is more precious than to see you come alive, but in terms of simplicity that moment won’t arrive. Not in time not when I need it not when I truly deserve it . There is nothing but to hope that one day I can concur it. Agree with it— the condition complex nature of your situation. I’ve passed the point of no return this is no longer infatuation. Honeymoon phase can’t explain the tone of this occurrence my muscles stiffen up I can feel a slight disturbance. A ripple in an ocean often over looked, but a hurt look on your face is what’s got me shook. Words can’t quite express how important this is to me. You and I; together we are indefinitely. Time. It’s of the essence it’s ready to be taken. An opportunity I’ve missed, it will no longer be forsaken. Surely, my mistakes would have caught up to me by now I lose confidence once I see that smile turn into a frown a smile I worked so hard to place so perfectly Watching the happiness be lost is like losing my own identity. Madness. Why must things carry on this way? Is it my actions, my words that keep our path astray? Show me. How can I relieve us from this pain that we must feel I need to show you that my love for you is real Nothing has been kinder to me, with a few exceptions But I’ve lost myself along the way, I’ve gained misconceptions. I’m not sure what will become of us all I ask for is a promise A promise to be together through this war of pain and wrongness Be with me and I pray that’s all you will need I have nothing left to give, besides the words of love I feed To you. I love you too much to let you go, although my strength has waned so much so recently things haven’t been the best. But with you I’m hoping I can lay my doubts to rest You keep me up and going, allowing me to proceed With the daily duties I must fulfill, the highly dreaded deeds. My wishes for us are to be happy in each other’s presence Intentions so good, but actions so wrong that lead us into these messes. I deeply apologize for all I have caused all I’ve done and all of my flaws. This might seem like an endless perdition, but I promise you the efforts will not be lost. Thank you for everything, whether it was then or now. The memories we have are timeless no matter the new route. Although we are no longer one, I hope that you stay true I’m still considering you mine, and myself belonging to you. If one day comes and I can no longer make you happy, I will reluctantly move on. A promise I can keep for once without the fear of doing wrong. Your happiness is what matters, even through this mess After everything that happened I do not love you any less I ask for your pledge to fight for me and us To keep going against the odds, to fight for love grown from lust I love you. Deeply. I can’t imagine being without you I hope this doesn’t scare you off, it’s just the sad truth That I’m so in love I can’t leave, can’t walk away from you Can’t go can’t take myself away from this But if it comes down to it I’d ask for one last kiss A kiss goodbye, and one last look into your eyes..
