I write this profession detailing my soul being ripped into two
Words delicately strung together I shall solemnly give to you
All things beautiful that have a beginning also have saddening ends
Over roses and thorns we stretch inextricably and bend

The palm of your hands always so sweet and moist
With one delicate touch and I am raised by your heavenly hoist
Your two dark pearls piercing every single layer
Until they reach my soul and set it alight as if by flare

We rode the waves together this year,
Every moment blessed with a naked wealth
Now I cannot afford to be austere
Lest I want to sink with an ineffective stealth

A knight in shining armor, the perfection of man
I wish it where so but that I am not my sweet and darling Ann
All I can amount to is me, and I have given you that rest assure
My love for you is sworn and inextricably pure

Dark clouds on the horizon have been looming for some time
All good things come to an end, to me that is nothing but empty rhyme
When the storm unleashes its fury I shall not wish to resign
Fate wields its sword undeservedly too much upon love in its prime

However your happiness and prosperity for me is of number one concern
If need be I will back down, acknowledge and turn
Let it be known if nothing else you my first love, love you I certainly do
Please remember in life to do what is right and true for you

this:

"All I can amount to is me.."

is a truth that stabs at the gut.

Alot of gems in this.
