Fools Gold

 

The near silence distracts me from any subtle sounds

I can’t hear myself breath and forget that I am even living a moment

Although this is surely the worst moment of my life

But your eyes are so beautiful

With that crystal coating they flick back and fourth looking into mine

To the inconsistent rhythm of a broken heart

I don’t know if I can or should try to help

I don’t know where to start

Should I speak?

For I am unsure if there are any words that could ease such a tender situation

Should I place my hand on you?

Or will my destructive touch turn yet another victim of love into a fools gold

Should I walk away?

Or will you interpret my overwhelming confusion as a gesture of our loves closure

Should I explain how your a part of me and that she was just the alcohol in me

Or should I just leave wishing you the happiness that you deserve

Yes that is what I shall do for you are a part of me and I don’t want to hurt you

I will always be here my love

But you are too smart for that to mater

That i do know

Goodbye
