A Tragic Fairytale- Poem.

He leaves closing the door.
Her entire being sinks down 

onto the cold hard floor.
He knows he's about to reap what he sows.
But he has no choice but to let her go.

No matter what she says 

won't make a difference.
She keeps lying 

to out speak the heaviest silence.
How bad it hurts loving someone 

she has to abandon.
Wine fills the ache 

but nothing replaces the anguish.

Years pass by 

but not a day goes by he's not broken.
Choking on the past 

that still exists in his heart.
But he keeps lying 

just to keep himself far.
Bottles and tears wash away 

the pain they both feel.
Because they both know they relinquished 

a true love that's still real.

Real as the time 

he reached for her in the dead of the night.
But life got too hard 

so he had no choice but to pass love by.
The one real love she'll always know,
Left her with an unbound love 

his soul will never once more hold.

She still holds on to her heart 

that he gracefully placed into the cold.
Picked up the rest of the frozen pieces 

because she believes someday they'll be whole.
And reassured herself 

she will be alright, 

cause she knows her hearts made of gold.

He'll forever keep going back 

to those days.
Always remembering 

the one love he let get away.
Hoping that she's okay, 

but never man enough to check on her.
Always assuming another

will be there for her.
But she could never again 

love another.
Surviving each day with hope 

A new love will find her.
