I didn't see this,
Didn't even want it,
But it happened.
Your face, flushed with happiness,
Your hair, spun gold in the sunlight,
Eyes, two fiery sapphires,
Your sweet voice in my ear.
Then I looked away from beauty
Averted sinful eyes, unworthy
Closed my heart, withdrew my mind
And pushed you away.
Wanting you, yet avoiding you.
Pain I couldn't feel.
Hate when I wanted love.
Killing what was there,
And what was left of it.
Now I force myself to watch you
As you turn your back on me
And walk away.
