Acceptance
You’re my soul-mate, my one, but I left you for dead.
Those demons keep pounding and torturing my head
as time heals no wound. My future is unknown.
When I think of our promises I feel agony, I’m alone.
With new history, this time I’m complete.
But still you are with me when I’m asleep.
What will become? I for one do not know.
Will I ever see you again? Can a feeling be suppressed?
Or do we submit to our new lives?
To speak the truth leaves you petrified.
Why don’t you come back if that’s the way you feel?
Allow yourself the emotion if you think it’s real?
I guess you won’t as time subsides
and all you’re left with is selfish pride.
I’ll never accept the fact that you’re gone.
But hopefully in time it won’t be too long
‘til the needing and wanting pass away
and leave me to live a happier day.
