This coal
black abyss, ever darkening,
only your face in front of me,
the only thing to turn
day to night,
pure to corrupt,
love to hatred,
to make this sweet dream into a dreaded nightmare.
I do wish this had happened differently,
that our lives are still entwined
by destiny, by fate,
to believe you are the one.
My innocent wishes twisted
by your dark deceptions,
the only thing to make me dread
this black, empty canvas.
Your dark, soulless mind,
taking all of the innocents lives,
their bodies, their emotions,
sacrificing their innocence,
their hope.
I know that we must live
our lives by the light we find
and follow it’s path as best as we can.
But your actions have caused me
to stray from that path, never to return.
