The Horror Show

The Horror Show

A Poem by JayJayBlue
"

About being with someone who is compatible and similar to yourself, but realising that you don't like who you've become

"
You're the mirror image
The light and the reflection of my shape
You're the second half of me
What makes my jagged body whole
A missing piece of a puzzle
I wish I never solved

I see all of my nature in your eyes
And I feel that in some ways it was fate
But what I know of myself I despise
And I'll have to chase you away
There's no happy ending to our story
There's no reason to stay

And the reasons that I loved you 
Are now pictures of a horrorshow
Every morning I wonder why I ever said hello?
But in my crooked heart I know
It's the way we were meant to go

You're a less than honest mistake
A reason I have to hold another regret
Another reason to resent humanity
You're the shadow behind the sun
All of my shortcomings
Embodied in love

I've been running away since
I can't explain our connection
But now I'm obsessed
Though I didn't intend to adore you
We tried to change each other
But we were always doomed 

And the reasons that I loved you 
Are now pictures of a horrorshow
Every morning I wonder why I ever said hello?
But in my crooked heart I know
It's the way we were meant to go
