My Dear

[katybrooks122]

My dear my dear,
I loved you out of fear.
For, when all was said and done
We never lasted
The long run.

My darling, darling
I was once happy
When you were near.
But now all is said and done
You could have been anyone.

Is it a crime to lust?
And only then to love.
The force of human emotion;
Seeking tenderness above your
fickle devotion

Time has taken away my fear.
I see through your facade,
touched your heart and felt stone.
Come to terms with being alone.

You were never my darling
You'll never be my dear.
