The Path

By Shewolf

The rise and fall of Anguish
overwhelms me as I search
for the path that led us here.
Nothing definite,
Only constant Darkness
     Defining
The Horrendous Thing
We have become.

The Love and Laughter
we once shared
Has fallen Prey
To Rage and Anger
which we have fed seemingly endlessly.
What insideous path have we taken?
What gods have we angered
To Curse a Love once Pure?

Perhaps your Love  (for me)
was merely an Illusion
Neither fleeting, nor lasting.
My heart begs for answers
yet finds only Pain.

I mourn for the Man that was
My Heart, My Soul, My World.
( I fear he no longer exists)

Despising  the One
Who's screaming words
'I HATE YOU!'
Destroyed everything.

    in my opinion and experience ... (not to be totally glum) all great and pure things, perfection if you will, end in tragedy. Sorry if it may be knocking on your door now. Nicely written.
