Twisted into Regret (You'll Never be Forgotton)

Where did you even come from?    
You've opened your secrets    
and trusted me with your pain.  
It's written in your stare  
you've seen the same in mine..    
Glistening Emerald,
illuminating my soul
and bringing forth my burden.
It's of a luscious Garden Green    
to compliment the shining black    
etched into your lips..    
Warming your eyes
and casting a perceived cool  
emphasised by the tainted black
smoothed to appropriate your lips
and warped your smile
into indifference.  
I've told you    
all I've bared to burden    
and loved you all the same.    
You've elevated me      
given meaning to me.      
Drank with me.      
And we drink until we kiss    
or until darkness and doubt confuses us both      
better than our lips ever could.  
For too long we've done this..      
this detached game of chess.      
Our hearts the board      
Our bodies the pieces.      
And we've yet to trade a piece.    
You've been the passion    
that's kept me strong.    
And the regret    
that's done me wrong.    
Detached or not,    
this cannot go on forever.  
You're the only regret I'll never forget.  
May love guide you home  
be it with me, or without.
I never expected you to love me
you just left it too late.
