Smoke and Mirrors

Sun, 09/14/2014 - 17:25 -- Treee

She is alone

Not unlike the angels in the sky

Not unlike a fetus in the womb

But like the fetus in the womb she is terminated

Obliterated

But her memory still exists

You can no longer act like you two never happened

She’s graceful like the angels

And a dark angel she is

Haunting your every thought

Your every dream

You hear her voice

You feel her presence

You can no longer act like you two never happened

And that kills you doesn’t it?

Because now you’re alone

In this world all alone

See you were never alone when she gave you the world

But it wasn’t enough

Yet she waited

Waited

Waited ‘til she could be enough

But she never was

Was she?

So you ripped her heart apart

You may not have pulled the trigger

But you damn sure shot the gun didn’t you?

You can no longer act like you two never happened

Can you?
