I wanted it to be you.
I really did.
I had forsaken all
that was dear to me
just to keep you.
I remember
you
telling me that deep down
you knew that we were in love.
But I was always trying to steal
something from you
that should have been given freely.
So,
in the end,
when all that was left was ashes
you had already been long gone,
promising yourself
to someone else.
I wanted it to be you.
I really did.
Though there is no rest
for me
At least my mind
is free.
