Once upon a time
I thought you were the one.
I wrapped myself up in you
and gave my life away.
I should have known
my crimes would return.
And be used as payback
to make yourself feel better.
I do not blame you now,
I should have seen the signs.
Bright and visable to all,
except the fool in me.
Now kisses that once turned
and set fire to my soul.
Only linger as a reminder
of what we've both become.
One last attempt
at a moment of passion,
Only served to hold me back,
and prove that much has died.
You never were the person
I once saw in you.
And I was never to be changed
into the one you sought.
