Let Me Hear....

Let me hear your oaths of love, the ones you did make by the firelight,

Let me hear those words you did utter, as I sublimed away under your unflinching gaze,

Let me hear it once more, that our future together is clear,

Let me hear that together, we’ll rid ourselves of this menacing haze.

 

Let me hear an excuse, another of your lies, nothing new between us two,

Let me hear it, and I swear I’ll believe you.

Let me hear that your path ahead had been dark and murky,

Let me hear that the fates have been cruel, and so has destiny.

 

Let me hear how you had missed me when I was out among the hordes once more,

Let me hear how memories of mine gnawed at your heart’s wounds sore.

Let me hear how you did shed a tear or two,

Let me hear your rage against time, for parting us two.

 

Let me hear your secret behind this aura of your magical bliss,

Let me hear, that it is but my radiance in which your whole self basks and gleams.

Let me hear your wild ranting, your senseless gossip,

Let me hear them, for they are my very bliss.

 

Let me hear of the love you still nurture for me,

Let me hear another allusion to your constancy.

Let me hear that you once did love me,

Let me hear another ode to simplicity.

 

For when I wake, I’ll wake up to realize,

That you were just never meant for me.

I’ll wake up to realize,

That nature’s perfect choice still waits patiently for me.

Till then,

The world outside the window, scorched in its frolicking lights will walk by me,

For I need no sympathy out of pity’s sake,

The world can just move on, leaving me dazed in its wake.

That is very beautiful
Its loving someone with your all
Knowing you will get hurt
But you don't care
And you simply deal with it all
Because some people are simply worth it
