It Hurts

I wanted to write about us, tales of a love that never died

I wanted to whisper about the past, words that would paint the future

I wanted to narrate our tales and inspire authors and poets

But I could feel my heart crumble a little when I remembered

I could feel my soul wobble every time I relived our experiences

I could feel my eyes tear in utter disbelief and remorse

I could feel my world grow a little colder, with walls closing in

In a few bad turns, I had lost the love of my life

In a few bad moves, you talked to the gods and I walked with humans

Pure perfection and ultimate imperfections seemed to balance

But the world shook us off its core, and we lost

I finally lost you, this time I lost you forever

I finally lost it all, lost the only thing that ever made sense

and it hurts, the searing pain hurts with the knowledge of the end
