Everything I did with you

I do alone

Everything you did with me

You do with him

What do you see in him

That I could not see

In myself?

The scent of anger and remorse

Lingers through memories

I thought sweet

I sent out and sought for love

Your idea of it

Tipped the scale; holding you

In the highest regard

Your touch

Brought a subtle selfishness

To a forgiving feeling

Cemented in time

One cannot recover

From something so,

Irreplaceable

For you,

Time will heal

What you failed to feel.
