Do you see me?
Do you feel that pain?
Can you see it in my eyes?
That horrible black stain.

Of sorrow.
Knowing you will never be mine.
It will not be different tomorrow.
The fact will always remain.

That it can never be.
Because you said it so.
Whatever you may believe,
My disillusioned heart will grow.

For you.
Why must you taunt me?
To give me a shred of hope,
Then drown it out with misery.

And lies.
Will I ever forget you?
Will I ever have that choice?
Oh, God, if I could.

I would.
To remove me from your life.
I am nothing but a burden now.
I do not want to cause any more strife.

And pain.
Mostly on my part.
Dreaming is for believers.
That is something I am not.

But I was.
Until I met you.
I saw my dreams were shattered.
Now there are very few.

Of those.
But life goes on.
Even if it does without you.
I have waited for so long.

For a sign.
But it never came.
So I have to leave you.
Everything will be the same.

Once again.
Down that path where feelings hide.
Where one can heal.
That is where I will reside.

For eternity.
But you will never know.
That is the beauty of it all.
And you'll be happy now.

And continue to be.
I will disappear and be gone.
No more simple requests.
No more love made through mirror and song.

And words.
That didn't mean a thing.
All the broken pieces of my heart,
I will clean up gingerly.

And throw away.
All the memories we shared.
All the dreams that never were.
It is only fair.

To you.
That I should disappear.
Forget me now and always.
I must forget you too, I fear.

And I will.
Granted it will not be easy.
But who said love was easy?
They only said it was war.

For what?
For a heart that can't be yours.
That is what they meant.
How could it be more?

Than that.
I understand them now.
That dreams are all useless.
That love is but a spell.

That poisoned me.
