“laced”


“laced”

I lie here silent,
Drowning in remorse.
Why?
Because of you of course.

All you really did,
Was validate what I already knew.
I let you in knowing already,
What things in life were true.

Still I risked it.
Knowing I stepped out upon the ledge.
But the fall from you was hateful.
I cannot reconcile heart and head.

You were my Angel.
Righting all that was wrong.
When you revealed your secret.
I’d never felt a loss so strong.
  
I walked against the knowing,
I believed in you.
While you laced my heart with dreams,
And none of it was true.
