Throws of tumult

by Lily Bride - Gemini

I search my losses,
my piles,
and find you, standing
with that smug grin
painting your face.
My greatest regret
is, regretfully not
my mistake that ended 
all the happiness
I knew,
but the loss itself,
though, hardly I feel
that I was to blame.
But in your eyes,
shadowed and obscured,
as always were,
I betrayed
petty reason and intention,
and deserve the punishment
forced upon.
And I endure,
the pain tearing
my heart and limbs,
the tears which burn
my wilted face,
the memories that plague
with their time and place
of what was
and what will never be.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this piece while in a very unstable state after my friend and I had a fight and she told me that our friendship was over.
