I saw you take your eyes off me, I saw you get home late, I saw you sleep all day, I saw you not listen to me, I saw you forget my b'day, I saw you pausing our song, I saw you text dry, I saw you being alone - Not lonely, I saw you seek for something Inevitable, I saw you eat alone, I saw you talk vague and rare, I saw you go silent, I saw you not hug me, I saw you having a dull sensual feel, I saw you avoid me, I saw you turn apathetic, I saw you get ingrate, I saw You and I - in augury And always become angry, I saw you inept for me - As I was such a zealot. It took me 16 years to allure, Yet only 16 months for you to elude. I saw you water a plant, I saw flowers growing from it, I saw you pluck them off, I saw you, standing hidden ; Wishing those were for me! I saw you give it to HER, I saw you as you were - Such an Angelic BOY from an ancient lore, I saw you see me as those Flowers - Nurtured and grown with love, Only to pluck'em off and Put it in a vase, On top of a weathered table, Like a slowly dying fable.
