A Heart's Betrayal
That look of disillusionment in your eyes
You could scarcely grasp what I had said
Every trivial notion faded away.
All that was left were barren reminiscences in my head.
Memories of a time when I never forsook my passions
A time when I could be resolute to my heart
But this world has tainted me
And that ideal world of faithfulness fell apart.
You sat quietly for a moment?
Pensive as to what you would say.
Your eyes strayed away from me conceivably in fear
Of the possible outcome of that dreadful day.
Hastily you gazed into my eyes
Almost as if searching for some truth.
You asked me "why?" and I sighed:
"Perhaps recklessness, the stupidity of our youth."
My heart drowned itself in sorrow
As I recognized the presence of pain in your voice.
The rage I anticipated was replaced by somber tears.
And I aspired to make these revolting truths into lies.
I prayed to go back to that day
To have had just a bit more strength
To have crux behind my inconsequential apologies.
And I contemplated about it at length...
Would you ever look at me again,
And see me as you had before?
It is a question you profess to know the answer to,
But can you ever be really sure?
These sins only sought to be confessed,
Yet the pain of this blunder does not seem to fade
And it won't until I put this ignominy to rest
Until I have made amity with the love I betrayed.
