you're the cure

I had a funeral yesterday.

A quick goodbye to

the person closest to me.

I can’t quite recall when she died.

It has been so long

since she was alive.

Why have I held on to

her lifeless body?

I chose to lose you,

to lose the love you gave me.

I had to leave you.

I didn’t mean to

let our relationship die.

I couldn’t take it.

Our love looked perfect,

 Loyal

Opportunity

Virtuous

Eccentric

--------------

Lethargic

Oblivious

Volatile

Ephemeral
