These Were the Things...

An altered recollection,
an unreal reality.
These are all the things that you
gave and forced
in me.

An imperfect perfection,
a life of tranquillity.
These are all the things that I
had always wanted
but I could
never see.

A saintly robed evil,
a black spot in the white.
These are the things you always were,
but you denied
what was right.

I tell you now that you were wrong,
I understand the truth.
The one thing I can never have back,
the one thing I want.
You.
