Fateful Foe.

Always we battled over everything
Nothing certain except that you were right.
A deadly foe, but here through anything
I knew you watched my back through every fight.
Hiding yourself behind rough hurtful words
I never knew your inner thoughts or heart.
Now your mask shattered like a flock of birds
And I see just what was there right from the start.
Inside your icy eyes a deep love glows
My heart breaks that I saw this love too late.
Each day without you my emotion grows
I have to find a way to subvert fate.
I would tear the world asunder to find you
I will hold you close and my dead soul renew.
