Unattainable

The pain and the sadness wells up inside of me,

To forgive you a little is to ignore you blind sighted me.

My fault indeed for giving my time to thee,

For trusting, and relenting after the first time I cried. You see;

"Fool me once, Shame on you."

Fool me twice....I am the fool.

And in my heart I know it's true,

So understand there's no more me and you.

And all the nights I cried from feeling the distance,

While you uttered how I was just being ridiculous,

I begged for your time, your love, your attention,

But your denial was all I got for my persistence.

And now you want to dole out all the love, and the kisses,

But I have long given up, love now in the trenches.

Doomed to repeat, if I don't go the distance,

Running far away from a partner whose now just a hinderance.
