Saying goodbye to a mirage of my affection
Sewing back torn heartstrings ruptured by deceit
Ebbing the flow of undeserved tears
Stemming my inclined thoughts
Ceasing to display want of action
Withholding my attention
Soothing my rage
Nursing your selfish inflicted wounds
Forgiving my own folly
Binding and casting what remains of you
Laughing at the banes of yester-year
Hopeful for the joys of the coming day
