ON A PEDESTAL TO BETRAYAL


I stretched for an embrace
from someone I don’t yet recognize,
I deliberated his love would be my launch.
Against you I would defend.
I mislaid every reminiscence you and I had ever made.
Confessing to myself, you were never there,
a hallucination of my imagination maybe,
I strut myself for the lesson,
I organize myself to discover
As it’s towards your way
In which you yet again choose to turn
A compassionate visage, Through the hard times he will haul.
I thought he might not smash my heart,
he might not be my end.
Mounting my head awake,
Sinking myself in painful memories I had vanished,
It seems like forever, since I last portrayed you,
Just as I completed you.
