So yea. Back to posting poems. The idea of a sabbatical to focus on my stories didn't really do anything. My stories still aren't done and poems are just so amazingly fun. This one, well it's a little older. It's about heartbreak. This one was about me. Now I don't normally write poems about me, but this one needed to come out. And it's good, I think. So I'm posting it.

Untitled.
The fog of doubt,
Replaced the shadow of truth,
Your presence,
Once did prove,
The blinding sun,
Recedes and enlightens,
And in one moment,
I could feel my knees weaken,
Fog has turned solid,
And I can longer trust,
That the emotion once known,
Was ever more than lust,
Doubt,
What you renewed,
I refuse,
To grasp that which you imbued,
And stars guide my love,
Though, not alone,
I still look above for trails,
To lead me back to one,
I look back,
Cleansed of your influence,
And realize it was more fun,
Than anything of conscience,
Whole lies and no truths,
The base of all of our time,
But I never lied to you,
We could have been divine,
Return to the life you held previously,
And I shall remain in mine,
I hold steadily alone,
In a world of my own design,
Alone I mourn your indecision,
Your inability to let yourself be happy,
But you're free now, in your insecurity,
I won't be here for your convenience anymore.
