Lamentations

Your pain

Stares at mine

I am

Faithless 

Your anguish,

An accusation

Your tears

Indict me

Your broken heart

Convicts me

 

Your innocence

Reflects my guilt

Your dejection

A mirror

Of my rejection

 

Your meek

Acceptance

Of your fate

Your loaded

Silence

Is a dagger

At the door

Of my heart

Yet,

I refuse it entry

 

Despondent

Is your love

Your whispers

Are your

Lamentations

I am a coward

Who fears

to lose myself

in the pool

of your desires

 

But oh,

How dearly

You detest me

And I,

Wanting you

And yet afraid.
