How Wrong Was I Poem by Mark Heathcote

Once I came close to your Magnum opus
I thought I was your inspiration
How wrong was I
Once I came close to your whispering soul
I thought I was its constellation
How wrong was I
Once I came close to the vortex of your heart
But I never entered, you didn't want me there
Oh, how I drowned in deep despair.
Once I thought you could be mine
And I thought silly me, I could fly
Oh how wrong was I
I fell hard like a stone from on up high
But never could I nullify her
So my heart learned to live in mourning every night.
Wishing one day she might even feel the same way.
Oh, how I drowned in deep despair.
Once I thought she could be mine
And then I thought silly me, I could fly.
Oh, how wrong was I?
