Over

It was over before it started.

I was empty-handed.

You were empty-hearted.

I was reaching blindly

into your abyss.

No surprise it ended up like this.

See, I had no reason

and you had no rhyme.

And it was all a great waste of time.

Never would have happened.

Never could have been.

Just another battle I’ll never win.

Just another love

draped in illusion.

Time to unravel this grand delusion.

And at the core

what it will say

is that things were meant

to be this way.

Out of my hands

I did everything that I could do

and then I left it up to you.

But it seems my dreams

were much too lofty.

Just too good to be true.
