Lost battle

I made you a promise,

Forever to keep,

You laughed in my face,

Sarcastic and deep:


"There's no forever,

How could it be?

When there's only sorrow,

Between you and me?"


A knife sliced my wholeness

Straight and precise,

Words I just swallowed,

Pure poison and ice.


"Have faith, let me show you,

All that's not doomed,

A mountain to conquer

Ain't easy, it's true.


But hardships are blessings,

You know what they say:

Together we're stronger,

There's a will, there's a way!''


"Darlin', you're trippin',

You're off your head,

Poor heart's still beating,

Yet, your mind is dead.


Feelings are pointless,

And never enough,

Embrace some awareness!

Stop trying to bluff!"


''Impeccable logic,

What can one say,

Wise words to brighten

A hell of a day!


Your sense with its marvelous

Soothing effect,

Yet, my emotions,

Your soul won't affect...''


"You're hopeless, my darling!

What else can I do...

I'll cut to the chase:

It doesn't fit any shoe!"


"Oh, shut up and listen,

For once in your life,

I know what I'm feeling,

It always feels right!


Games I am not playing,

So bluffing I'm not,

I love you to pieces!

You're mean, but that's hot."


"Stop tryin' to tease me,

You know it won't work,

And mind your own business,

Don't pull out that smirk!"


"I don't want to leave you!

You're forcing me now,''

Heart's fallen pieces,

Mind's puzzle blow.
