Thief

I came across him in the dark
And like a moth to a flame
He pointed out the parts of me
That were bright and full of life
And just as I stepped close
He stole that spark he claimed to love
And used it to light the path he left on

Never Good Enough

I once was an open sky
But you complained of no domain
So I then became a storm
To which you scorned my heavy rains
I fell down into a pond
For you to find all but arcane
So I grew into a river
Hoping to flow into your veins
My current brought me far
But see by then it was too late 
You seem to love the clouds
I guess my sky wasn’t that great

Far Away

Fractured lies
A used disguise
Won’t save you from this fate
You’ll drown in hope
A thought provoked
Forced locks on every gate
Presence not
But not forgot
A promise to be kept
Here you are
Once near now far
For integrity is inept

Assumptions

You planted a seed of uncertainty 
Which then sprung into this thought
That one day I might walk away
After finding a love you were not

You watered this concept for far too long
It grew to consume your mind
And while you nurtured this false idea
You then foolishly left me behind 

I tried to stop you from losing it all
I planted a different seed
Which then grew into why I left you
For the love I could give back to me
