False Reality

You're an a*****e.

And I couldn't help but agree -
Losing face and shattering heart
Between my soul and another

You have invaded the intimate space
Hidden within the crease of 
Shadow and potential progression
With what intention -

I couldn't guess.

Are you a glimpse of hope?
Have you corrupted into a body of loss?
Do you want me to walk away,
Disappear, beyond where we were?

Loss is more exhausted than
Every stone being worn smooth.
Loss of love and being forgotten
Allows leaves to die and never

Be the same again.

I wish I thought I could walk away
One step onward is enough
Just, please do not look back
On what hurt and tore at you most.

Every ray resting on the peaks
Exposes so much more than the
Mountain before us.

You and the sunrise have
shown me what it's like to cook for the living

And death never being a second thought.

Did you ever love me as
You lead me along a path
I never knew I should've walked upon
What l didn't know let me free

To peace, poverty, and competition.
My heart comforted by soul
Sat mourning the sunset.
I was really never wealthy in love,

Was I? Simply begging and invisible.

I fought with myself, others, and you

Expecting to know what had been

And what never was

Nearly losing my mind

Until I realized you mirror hope,

A nonexistent being reflected into

Nothing, but an even more

False reality.
