Meltdown

Are you happy where you are

Alone,

You have pushed away too far

In hope

To satisfy your illusions,

For them you hide,

But still you wait, no conclusions

To pain inside.

Do you still lie to yourself,

To dream

That it’s better than before,

Unreal

To waste away, your emotions,

To give no one,

The death of love, and devotion,

You come undone.

Your tears fall on lonely cheeks

Unseen,

Mourn ahead, a love this weak

Soon gone.

Now sit alone, slowly wither

I look away,

A love once strong, lost forever

Slowly decays.
