it was a night that I will never forget
yet one he will likely never wish to repeat
and to think that one misguided being could
feel so incredibly filled with love
while the other only felt such vile deceit
and mercy
though not for that of which he ultimately
intended
but rather the great guilt he otherwise
couldn't relieve
my too tender heart failed
my much too logical mind
for the briefest of moments
and for a while I loved in that time
and quite unregrettably so
I wish he could have admitted the same..........
