Day of Reckoning

Today is our day of reckoning,

For here I am exiled from you,

Now we, return from our

journey of friendship and love

from disputes that never seemed to end.

Destiny has decided to part our ways,

So I surrender to my heartless fate

No more running down alleys

No more baby girl names for you

No more greetings of my Poetic escalations

No more attempting the impossible

Upon the alters of decay,

We were not consecrated to love

We were not meant to be composed

And as words scrawl black across the sun,

I take it back, those beautiful things I once said,

Today we die for each other

I am undone,I am defeated 

But I know that good can come

From saying goodbye,

And being dead to each other

Will serve a greater purpose.
