Unrequited
A heart destined to be broken, a love never to be consummated that is what I see you in your eyes.
I can never be all that you need, your spirit can not be bound to one soul.
I have already lost you and we have just begun; the dance has ended but the music plays on.
I am just a shiny new object to wile away the time, until the true light enters your life.
With each passing moment, I become more bound to something that will never actualize.
The needs of one cannot be changed and should not be altered to please another.
The love hidden within me is a force that will scorch my very soul if ever released and abandoned.
Walls made of brick and mortar constantly needing to be reinforced against the tide of emotion slamming into them.
Have pity on this soft soul and don’t pull her in with soft words she is not your destiny.
The sound of your voice falling on my ears, the smile lighting my face always brings me a step closer to our demise.
