Love You Til The End

Said I’d love you til the end, and every day I tried,

I could build us a castle, with every tear I cried.

Days were mental torture, needles to my brain,

Nights were a distraction, to ease that mental strain.

You say I never speak, but boy the stories you would hear,

If you just looked into my eyes, you’d see the joy, hurt, and fear.

I told you I wasn’t perfect, eventually you would see,

I told you things would change, eventually you would leave.

Not better than the rest, not better than the last,

Didn’t give you a bright future, didn’t erase your past.

I didn’t make a dent, barely even a mark,

I wasn’t the flame to your fire, barely even a spark.

We’re taking another turn, going around a bend,

Whether we make it or not, I said I’d love you til the end.

Gone

Yes a poem!  Wanted to be a little more personal with you guys.  Some can be depressing, sorry!  I just write whatever comes out, enjoy!

It only took a minute for it to disappear,

You're off in your life and I'm alone here.

To dwell in my thoughts to drown in sorrow,

Wishing all be restored by sun-up tomorrow.

You walk in a cloud of gray, mind in a trance,

The memories rain down while your thoughts do their dance.

Walking with a heart of steel, cold, hard and bare,

I would never bring you hurt and this just isn't fair.

I await my doom, my heart sinking with every panicked beat,

I await the death of love to sweep me off my feet.

Remember me by the smile that only for you was turned on,

Remember me by the love, that within minutes is long gone.
