Between midnight thoughts

Broken, my heart,
Dead, my song,
Kiss the part,
Your touch belongs,
Upon my cheek,
Within my walls,
Into the deep,
My teardrop falls,
With grace and fury,
It stains the dirt,
Hating you duly,
Just feeds the hurt.
To feel your warmth,
Then taste your coldness,
Has left me torn,
My dreams now hopeless.
Dreams without form,
I see they were,
The one I loved,
You never were,
Yet reflections of,
What never was,
So familiar haunt,
Me now because,
To me it seems,
That what I want,
Exists in dreams,
Dreams that daunt;
The reality with,
Fictions glare,
I'm kissing the wind,
And tasting the air,
For your sweetness,
Did it disappear,
Or perhaps was it,
Just never there?

it was never there

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

Woman, you'll be the end of me.
