that place over there

In all those days when I thought I was loved
a concept does arise,
that true love is a tangible doubt
and as distant as the skies.
But within this very heart there lies
the answer that I seek,
though I doubt the search will take it's course
for my bravery is ashamedly weak.
I prefer the comfort of my prudent doubts
the cushioning of their ignorance
so I'll bathe in the shadow of their muted truths
and reside here without hindrance.
But your tenacity appears to have no shame
and resolves to invade my mind,
and in my minds eye I see deceit
and all things most unkind.
Though my heart beats fondly within my chest
it will offer you no embrace
for I trust not the poignant words of love
or the corruption of acting in haste.
I will forever walk a lonely path
under skies of disbelief,
I treated her like a princess,
she acted like a thief.
Never again will I bare my soul
nor give my heart so free,
for I'm just an empty vessel now,
after my princess walked out on me.
