Love Poem: Best Wishes, Tainted

Best Wishes, Tainted

whisper my name
as a cold shot of pain 

the aftermath of a requited cruelty
reminds me of the perfection we could never be

but now it's over, 
i can't find my soul
now it's over,
i'm wandering alone

despite the joy for which we fought
too many promises returned nought

but what makes me sick to think
is that the ravenous jealousy inside me
can't bear to picture your face, 
since, rightfully, someone pure has taken my place
