chorus and verse; your song of blame

Folder: 
Poetry

Every petal the wind blows away from me,

Is a freedom that I lose,

Each binding me closer and closer,

To this path I did not choose,

Every winter's breath that ices the air,

It chills me to the core,

And without you, I have no support,

I crumple to the floor,

A mass of shivers is all I am,

Reduced to tears and pain,

Just a smile, however weak,

Has now become a strain,

If loving you is considered wrong,

Then mistakes are all I know,

Gone or not, there is no erasing,

These scars that I must show,

I desire not their fake concern,

It makes this all the worse,

The recurring dreams are now a chorus,

Each waking moment is a verse.

So take this song and know it well,

Memorize its every chord,

I will not take what is not mine,

And this blame is certainly your's.
