Skin, Bone, Flesh & Blood (Free verse) by scitz
I realize now,
that I have achieved nothing that I set out to do.
A part of you dies when you realize that love is no longer true.
For I have felt love,
Even though it only lasted a while,
Its just such a loss,
when memories of us are the only moment I can smile.
Back then I never knew it,
But I was so contented,
Every barrier I had you went right through it,
And every good trait of me,
did not wait for me, to represent it.
Now I feel lonely within this cage of bone and skin,
I have tried every lie, every sin.
You have moved on I have not,
I still remember you,
But you have forgot.
I am skin, bone flesh and blood.
With empty spaces within, all alone,
skin, bone, flesh and blood,
will sin the stones that were left for our good.
I still grieve over you, and will to the end,
For our love was true, but broken hearts do not mend.
I became skin, bone, flesh and blood for loving you.
