Love Poem: Realizations

Realizations

he lay next to her in peace
keeping him warm 
a blanket made of fleece
she was all he ever wanted 
all he'd need
till the day she said the words
that made his heart bleed
he begged and pleaded
please don't leave
she said he was the part of her 
that she did not need

he thought these wounds 
would heal in time
they say it was his fault 
for love made him blind
he began to realize
that he ignored all the signs
a rush emotion fills him
he couldn't help but cry
abandoned by love 
he was living a lie

he had seen the truth 
after months had past
even after devastation 
his heart would last
he wasn't worried in the least
because now he sees 
she was an angel craving chaos 
and he was a demon seeking peace
