NOTE: Yes, Nia. I went back to my rhyming style
THE FALLACY
I stand the watch, needles and pins.
Plead penance for my gothic sins.
Oblivious, I pace the ledge.
With wings of steel, I give my pledge.
To fly or fall, you call my bluff.
I offer all, it's not enough.
The banner raised, I stand in shame-
To heedless cause and renounced name.
I stare in rancid retrospect,
Void of emotion whims reflect.
Tipping the cup, sipping sadness,
Dripping melancholy madness.
I spread my wings for far-flung skies.
The angel sings, I close my eyes.
A weighted soul sprung from the slope-
In dying dream gives birth to hope.
The vision caught within my mind,
The afterthought of loving blind.
For all that rehearsed majesty-
Now only gleams of travesty.
As I've felt your hunger, your fire.
Ached in your pain, passion, desire.
But stained, (Dust on your silk white glove),
I've felt your touch, but not your love.
and
Fool's Farewell
No message has this heart received,
I think this fool has been deceived
Pure of heart and yet so blind,
How could I been so wined and dined?
Hoped for the best but prepared for the worst,
Of my own ramblings of this I am cursed
Heedless to intuition that gave me the clue,
Blinded was the truth, I now know about you
Vain silence stifled the passions of a rapturous heart,
Entwined in your selfish love, I'll no longer play a part
Encroaching fears have become my reality,
You never really loved me, it was all just a fallacy
At no time in your heart, just briefly in your mind,
I was not what you desired, not of your ideal design
Your true intentions you so carefully did disguise,
It's why you could never really look me in the eyes
Now this frail heart bears your cruel scar,
The only way I can show you this, is a poem from afar
My love of life and dreams I shall renew,
To restore my faith, I can no longer be In love with you.
