The End

You came to the door, at my place,
you just weren't the same,
I reached out my hand to touch your face,
you brushed my hand away.
Accusations flew without reason,
lock picks for premeditated freedom,
When did lace promises become rusting chains,
In desperation we made love anyway
then wept on the brink of the chasm between us,
And the dawn rose angry grey.

Olias.

I am so sorry.... You described the last scene perfectly. Hope this pain heals and the "dawn rises bright and fresh"

Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go.

"when did lace promises become rusting chains" this line says it all to me...

Olias,

as said above - the pain is evident and I agree with tradewinds - that is the line that hurt the most - well said. Panne

What a sad way for it to end...but what a wonderfully written poem
