One-day

As distress once ate at my soul. Her voice brought peace and made me whole.  My goal was certain and my path was set. How wrong was I to have  thought in strange such a manner. As the banners were clear and things were glim the rain washed away my daily sins. Keen was a wish and broken down was what I once called a heart. Now sorrows and memories is all I cart. Her name brought about this certain calm. When she opened her eyes and I wasn't around she was alarmed. Like a farmed animal my fingers ran through her hair. As I coaxed her back to sleep with care. A kiss on her forehead to then hold her tight. I was her comfort every night. The cold weather conditions was on a mission to make her shiver. While I let wishkey ruin my liver, in her absence so wild. She was like my first and last child. Her mellow voice filled my soul, her taste remained  in my mouth till I grow old. Like a corpse I lay still to listen to her breathe. Her heart is all that I did need. To feed on my anger only to have her touch, tell me it's okay. I'd just smile to endure my pain. Things are now only but deception, as disgust fills me as I stare at my reflection.  Years have gone by as I watched you wear his ring, times have changed and you're no longer my sin. One-day I shall find her who will give me my fresh start. One-day she will love the broken pieces of my heart. One-day she shall replace the memories I share with you. One-day she will give me her days of new. One-day I will call her my destiny, as I walk through heavens gate.  One-day she shall be my soul mate, and that day will be too late as you'd understand your folly. No more will my lips say I love 'you' with such joy. One-day my heart will not be available for you to toy.
