The Rejuvenation of Dignity : Relationship Poetry

written by Poet : Shadow-Poet


 


Photobucket
Please understand that presently I must display
To find the life we used to know within our dreams

The very beauty which I feel has died today
Oh, trust me when I say your self indulgence seems

To push my heart away as we no longer share
All that we had when sweeter days bore fortitude
The glow of virtue throughout every night we'd bear
Made way into a place where this would oft include

The fluency of lust which burned within your soul
I wish that all our time had always been like that
Yet moment after moment you have lost control
and now it feels as though my love and hate combat

There is no way of helping you when you can't see
What you have done to us, I wanted you to know
I'm tired of dragging myself through the dark debris
While feeling just as all we knew died years ago

I cannot keep forgiving you for every time
You bring me sadness and drown me in your despair
Then leave me all alone to think about the crime
Which causes me to wonder if you even care

While peace within myself for what I do believe
Now that I've pegged the true form of your inner core
Gives back my spirit as you watch me gently leave
This isn't like the times I said I'd leave before

I'll search my way to what you could not give, my sweet
and dream a dream that one day may come into view
When I do find the one who will make me complete
You'll wake up to the thought that what you lost was true
