For Conscious Sake

For conscious sake

Betrayed and my feeling won’t leave me alone,
Though all the goodness and kindness I’ve shown.
Somewhere standing in my petrified woods,
I fell to the ground, I meant it for good.

Believe me somedays my breath won’t seem to expire.
Even so those melancholy days I admire.
Marred in the reflection of loved ones past,
A paltry reminder of life’s half full in my drinking glass.

Sometimes the many masks are too much to bear.
Walking through those embittered days without much to care.
Sometimes lines like cows feet are much like legalese,
Sometimes life rebuttal won’t doing what I please.

Someday goodbye’s commentary is not good enough,
And though tears we shed through time may be tough.
Quiet times of sweet surrender
A martyred few for every gender.
Sometimes goodbye just ain’t good enough.

Sometimes I’m sorry is a little too late,
Sometimes a piece doth not a whole heart make.
In hearts felt so deeply,
And the lonely heart that mourns.
Amiss all the battles, I still feel torn.
