At your feet I laid my heart,
And you threw it back at me.
You toyed with my emotions,
Played me cruelly.

You enslaved my feeble soul,
Shunned my purest love,
You put me through such tortures
That no one should deserve.

So now time has claimed my body,
And made me hard as stone
I no longer feel emotion,
I've become a hollow drone.

And now you come to me,
After all these wasted years,
Asking for forgiveness
And to help dry out your tears.

But my heart stayed cold as steel
For the darkness wraps me tight.
So to your shattered body I
Can only laugh with spite.

Come not to me again,
Lest I show all the pain.
And make you suffer what I went through,
Torture so arcane.

My heart had almost melted.
My blood had almost stirred,
I was close to again believing,
All your touching words.

I almost felt you aching,
I almost felt your fear.
I almost felt your anguish,
And I almost shed some tears....
...Almost....
[Grins very coldly]
