Aye, Goodbye

         o I adore thee
          like the blinding sun
          that gazes at my rifts
          and glistens the dark spaces
          of my being

          — one I yearned to be
          yet one never will I become
          for thy Judas kiss,
          gracefully unveiled
          amidst old winters
          has banish'd all
          my love for thee

         once was I filled
         with unfeigned affection
         and high hopes
         in the virtues of the world

         alas, those joyful days
         were now shadows of the past
         and there forever
         will frolic with thy sin
         — with my death

         so go, mourn.

         for the madness of I,
         that blooms in what
         now is a desolate field
         of my good ol' heart
         formed a new home
         where I, alone, live
         bereft of human ties
         that once nurtured me

         for silence turns
         into foes
         forgiveness turns
         into vengeance
         and you, yes, you!
         you turn into
         a masterpiece
         of my sorrow,
         unbeknownst of,
         you created from
         the ashes of guilt
         left from my flames

         aye, woe is all that you are!

         and this wretched world
         breeds more woes
         at the thoughts of you

         relish, hence, in my passing
         my trembled soul,
         again, will never be
         yours to cure
         for that soul has
         left my mortal part
         and flew up the skies

         left here undraped
         is a cold, vile vessel
         spent of sympathy

         if you know the
         state of war I am in,
         to be saved,
         I could have been
         but nay!
         robbed was I
         by your hideous
         gratitude towards
         millions of Alice —
         images scattered
         like withered leaves
         that envelop your
         skin of scars

         aye, aye!
         bathed in bitter
         sand and foul waves
         is my aye!

         so quiver!
         quiver for in
         this world
         I shall meet
         your last gasp
         of cold demise
         — in my mind
         — in my heart

         let us be fair, shall we?

          o I adore thee
          in these harsh verses
          departed of
          sentiments

          so for one last time
          hear me

          I say —

          keep your
          grievances
          and naive
          philosophies
          in garments of
          forlorn
          for in my demise
          I vow,
          everafter,
          you will mourn

          goodbye.
