Goodbye: There, I have said it - while this love is still too young to shutter the walls of my heart; <br />I have tasted the bits of its sword, and from the linger of lust in its eyes, it can surely cut deeper <br />O, this love, which could not be pure, like many others strewn before my path, <br />And I could not disclose my fragile heart once again, upon the guillotin’d blade of such a un–loving ripper… <br />If this love meant different, fascination then, would not have longed for a way to tear me apart – <br /> <br />But I keen to heartbreaks; the lessons I have learnt, taught well by those of similar desire <br />My eyes had thought you indifferent, the façade whose disguise is concealed beneath innocence <br />But you must forgive me, for bidding such an early goodbye - An emotional quagmire - <br />There is no other way I could outline this puzzle, this deceit conceived in such correspondence <br />You have my heart, yet of fondness neglected; so let me have it back, inside of me, for only myself to admire…<br /><br />N.K.
