Epitome of the Darkened Soul

†††
I loved you...

Reticently I saunter down a long forest path,
Trying to recall where it all went so wrong,
But now only darkness fills the empty void,
Tragically I fight but I am not very strong...

The street lamps iridescent and my memory so dark,
A silent mist here leaves the sky's gray,
Introspection denies the existence of love,
From the words you said when you left that day.

No one can see the destruction inside,  
The wounds are cut far in too deep,
It's a kind of pain that tears at your heart,
And you pray in the darkness for eternal sleep...

To concede is the epitome of darkness,
A nauseous affliction that penetrates your soul,
Searching for any reason to stay and go on,
Amidst all the reasons you already know...

I vividly recall the first time we met,
It was dark and you were dressed all in black,
In Victorian lace and those black Vegan boots ,
The love spell you placed on me was then cast...

Darkness dwells in a gothic romance,
You choose in life whom you will love,
I thought you were here forever and always,
But instead it was me you disposed of...

Life with out you no longer exists,
Nor the magical stories you have read,
With a happy ending but not his time,
In the forest they will find me, already dead...
