Out of Sight



What tears can redeem a broken past?
What memory can seal a broken lass?
What more can be upheld if nothing is the same?
When the past is lived as the present, with joy as pain.
 
With Love that is water yet anger, that is as evaporating heat.
I see now it never sleeps
Calm are only the glances of hate that pierce the soul
Following them murderous words that wish me cold.
 
I look at all the matter with me and see soon
I will have no place, no case. Fatigue;
Unable to pick up the pace. Softly beating heart all to well understood
As my presence causes more bad than good
 
Dear author, know that you are as old candy
Unpleasant to eyes and a taste that no one fancies.
Time is cruel but crueler are the words of your lass,
For she has already considered you part of her past
Or perhaps much worse could be said
For it may even be that in her eyes you are already dead.
