Wings of Love.....Broken

Once upon a fallacy I soared on wings of love.

Today, I wonder--
what was I ever thinking of?

With willful wings mangled
and burning with lust
I soared to Love's acidic heights
looking for the love
I once found
in us

Seeking diligently
for it's empyrean comforts
The only thing that interrupted me
from reaching that peak
was another jealous fights
and devotion
that proved very weak

My unchaste ears naively privy
to sordid stories
of her scheming deceits
My heart burned
within me
and as lies wrangled my course
the disgust burned in me

I said nothing
I did nothing
I expected nothing

I guess I hoped that prayers
would hold us together always
when it only took devotion

No matter how many times we snatched love back
from Hades strong hold
it was very evident
to see

That that love was not meant for me..
