:: ruthless ::

bleary and bleak, the cloudy skies
harsh, a crisp, wintry morning,
I lay down the roses for you,
deep, abruptly red, moist in dew,
as you lay cold within the earth
I am standing over you, dry eyes
void of the soul you used to be
buried memories emerge behind me
reconciling the past mistakes
based on the love we had, gone
all that is left of you now, empty
swirling and fading away, away
and now, on that cold, bleak morning
turning and walking over dreams
whispering by in the gentle breeze
hard, brown leaves dancing slowly
swirling, reflecting the choices we made
somehow, someway, for some reason
all the mistakes we have made, left us
vunerable and weak, as time went by
seen too much, learned, heard enough
now, it is time, who left us, strong
that clear moment, such clarity
that I'll be standing and walking away
and yet, only you remain, cold and buried
decomposing, and breaking away, away
from you..

then one sorrowful tear, I shed,
drops for you..
