Cruelty Unnnoticed

A fate so cruel,
love was not to be.
How foolish to think
it would bless me.
Through clouded vision,
my favorite fantasy
crumbles and shatters at my feet.
I'd ask him to help me pick up the pieces,
shards so sharp and too fragile for me ---
I'd ask him to pick up my pieces...
if he hadn't been the one to destroy me.
This dream, once mine, is no longer alive to chase --
all my loving and wishing cannot replace
the precious moments that I now have lost;
he's smiling for me,
but at what cost?
His future is bright, happy, carefree;
he thinks I can just forget my dreams.
I smile, I nod, I pretend to play along;
too bad you'll never hear that siren's song.
I wish for you happiness...
I wish for your happiness.
I wish for your happiness...
it's all I have left to wish for in this mess.
