Never Again
I stare out into the night
your aroma still surrounding me
I breathe you in and realize
From now on, this will not be
For you will never come my way
This was the very last time
I shall miss you, every breath of you
Intoxicating.....sublime
I look up at the star filled sky
Wondering as I do
How will I live, what will I do
Without the wonder of you
Suddenly , I feel the tears
Falling from my eyes
I understand what I have done
I've stopped all the lies
No more hurried "I love you"s
No watching you search for words
No fighting back my bitter tears
No rival's laughter heard
I tried to love you as you were
It hurt too much ,I fear
To watch you give you love away
Unsated with what was near
I cannot hold you to me
Without your full consent
Your eyes on the horizon
Full of longing and discontent
Yes, I will miss you, darling
The tears now come in a flood
I look down at my shaking hands
Now covered in your blood
I know not what will happen
But this I know for sure
To ever watch you strain the bit
Was too much to endure
My heart forever weeping
Watching you weave your dance
For someone you barely know
Who you happens to give a glance
I never would have been enough
My love, my body, my kiss
I never was, and it breaks my heart
To take your life like this
I had no choice, my dearest love
You promised to be mine
And now you shall...and mine alone
Until the end of time
