"Laid To Rest"



From vibrant colours of life
The eyes did not see the gray...
The beginning stages of darkness creeping in
Senses began to wonder
Losing their track
Footsteps faltered
Questions began
Building by the seconds passed
Time filled up with empty spaces
Leaving holes within conviction
Hours began to run cold
Temptation was revealed to be an illusion
Promise of hope fled
Mistrust took root within the shadows of doubt
The beginning of the end came swiftly
Emotions tangled together
Lines were drawn without cause of recognition
Pointed fingers of blame shot like arrows
Before the thoughts were formed
I found myself lost
Locked away inside my mind
Conversations looped
Misleading intentions
Boundaries were ignored
You crossed that divide
Folding my life into two
Abandoning me on a path to a place I could not follow
Making the life within my heart question existence
All the edges of my being rounded off smooth
Bitterness bit in
Anger grasped a hold of my baited breath
Limiting the compassion given
To the point of no return I was pushed
Questioning everything...
To that heart stopping moment of realization made
That I loved you... until I hated you...
Making my only choice in belief
That you are now better off as a memory...
