The Beginning of the End
A Poem by TTBoy
Having no idea about the
day you had the day we made it
official
actually was the beginning of the end
Nothing I could do
But I knew something was there
it was wrong
Yet I held it together
for as long as I could
You couldn’t blow me or blow me off
enough times to make me feel
that I was delusional or developing a paranoid
brain fart that keeps that voice in my head
telling me that you
are perfect
Even naked
You are not perfect
Even in your own mind
You run from yourself
and I see you running
And when I found out what happened
it could have been alright
because of my commitment at the time
to you
And even though I want you back,
the beginning of the end is knowing
that you are bound to repeat that
same selfish behavior
and I am just too old to keep up with
that kind of energy
I held it together this long
What’s another fifteen years?
