Heartless

byGuiltyPleasure©

I had no part
in your fall.
I bent to help
but not for love.

It wasn't I who drew
the lines then
took care to
colour beyond them.

Tears not deliberately
drawn still fell
on me making
your damaged self
obvious.

There is no way
to avoid the inevitable
hurt. Platitudes
occur to me but
you are beyond words.
