It was supposed
To be worth it
If we would have created
A life
Together
Worth bending rules
Because
What we had before was
Clearly
Not what we wanted
Anymore
Now there is
Nothing
Though we stacked
All the glasses lovingly
Neatly
Completely ready
For years
Until dust settled
One last time
And after drinking
From them
A libation to
What could have been
I waited some
Then walked away
From the skeletal things
De-fleshed and hollow
And in the mirrored view
A fool
Who gave the best of her days
To you
And the mythical world
We lived in
How do I begin again?
Knowing
One could invest
Everything
So stupidly
Marring the beauty
I was so sure to have seen
And believed
To this deflated and un-sprouted
End where the beginning
Should have been
I lost you
Then me
As a stone
Sinks in some
Inner
Cold and blackened
sea
