Goodbye

My initial thought of you proved to be founded
My sweet surrender to a pleasant torture
My naive giving-in to a perfect disaster

You are the mistake over which I have no regrets
Yet you are the mistake which
I will not commit over and over again

I am not willing to sacrifice my sanity
Just to please your whims
I refuse to be played again
I am revolted by the oh-so many tears
I shed for you, over you just a time too many

I am bemused by how I fell into your trap
Me, usually so careful to who I let into my life
To whom I give the key to my heart

But I believe we were fated
Our meeting was inevitable
You were the test which I lamentably failed

Once, all the signs pointed to you
Misguiding me all the way
Now all the signs are pointing away from you

Yet, I am strangely calm
My eyes still dry
My soul relieved at your departure

You fulfilled your mission
It was my mistake to ask for more
I asked for what you could not provide

Destiny got the best of me
Clearing my blindfolded eyes of the
Perfect image I had of you

I now see you as you really are

A fantasy without meaning
A mere being
Who is simply not worthy of me

A part of me died long ago
I failed to understand what it was

Today, I realise it was you
Who died completely in me
I can now confidently say that
All bondages have been severed
I am truly freed from you

I don't want you anymore
Not today
Not tomorrow
Not ever again.
