A horrid taste left in my mouth,
by my own putrid words.
Rabid, the foam surrounds my lips.
The lips you once kissed.
A sadness that will not leave,
takes over my mind, my heart.
Regret but froths from my silent lips.
Everything was my fault.
I read the words poured from your heart.
It is too late to go back.
Even too late for revenge now.
The coldness I brought on myself.
Wishing is a desperate prayer now.
No saviour to comfort me.
Surround myself by all my friends.
Still, something is missing.
I hate myself, for things I've done.
The words still linger on my lips.
Words I can never say to you again.
I still cry for your kiss.
A part of me is holding on,
gripping so tight it hurts.
I can't let go of the memories we made.
My heart is pounding with regret.
My wretched voice, choked with tears.
I don't blame you for your actions.
I fled from you in dire fear,
alone, I deal with my actions.
I can't explain the sorrow I feel.
Sorry remains a part of sorrow.
I look so hard to yesterday,
almost believing there's a tomorrow.
A future with you is forever banished,
by my own rotting self pleasure.
I never expected you to change.
It is I who needed a make-over.
With my vile words, and poison love,
I expected you to hold on.
We tried to salvage strings from the wreckage,
but all strings had been let go.
A horrid taste of my own medicine,
forever decide my fate.
For once, you turned the tables on me.
Now it is forever too late.
