Interim
I'm mad at myself, for I promised
I would never cry for you,
but it's not the loss of you
for which I weep -
it's the thousand possibilities
brilliant and limitless
that you have stolen from me
it's the hope - which every human
needs to survive
that you have carelessly stepped upon,
it's the simple fact that I can never
truly return to that optimistic young woman
who saw everything as bright and beautiful -
you took my dreams and hopes,
turned them into depression and indifference,
and then left without even saying
Good bye
so I'm saying it now -
you're the thief of my heart
but I will love you until the day I die.
Reason for writing:
Most of my poetry comes from the first love was lucky enough to find. It's too bad he didn't find himself.
You could have done great things, Ace...and still can.
Most of you also know (and if you don't ^_^ ) that and Interim is a period of time between two events.
This was written during the space between when Ace left me for other things, and when he came back into my life.
Both were very, very hard.
