i've heard the story of forever
a circle without end
beneath the shadows in his smile
and lovers playing pretend

i've told the story of forever
through eyes that turn astray
and hands that seek forgiveness
while pushing you away

promises breath fiction
as emotion mimics truth
the distance in your fervent plea
was louder than i knew

so you mocked our love a fairy tale
wrote me down to dust
tore away the hidden veil
exposed translucent lust

staring through a prism
that reveals the face of light
our bond means nothing more
than the words you bled that night.
