LAST MISTAKE

Encircling my trapped entanglement
I search for your eyes
Those bright, clean orbits of emerald
That I love to look into

But they are gone
I have done you wrong
I will never touch you again

Imagining our endless void
I see so many emotions
Where did the suspicion come in?
What trapdoors awaited us?
It’s obvious, I was oblivious

You took my heart
And all I had in you
Then shoved it in my face
Why have I done this to you?

I was something to you
Everything was on my side
The perpendicular bypasses overhead
Were just that: overhead

Now I watch as they crumble
And burn into a million stars
I could have changed everything
If I just could have been there

I could now gather myself
And call you and apologize
Beg for your condolences and cry
But it’s all too late for that

The closest I can get to you now
After I made my last mistake
Is in myself
This torn and tattered being
That I’ve become

You are really gone this time
Reality has slapped me in the face
I am truly alone
And that’s just what I deserve

The worst part of it all
Is that you never could calm down
Your temper got the best of you
So now all I’ve got…
Is this stone that bears your name
