Falling girl, there is no way back, with a faint forlorn smile and woebegone heart I watch you fade away, woven in mist. She knows me, in her most intimate dreams, that glint in her eye hides secrets and soundlessly screams: I love you, forever. Falling girl, in that never-returning dress: whiter than these ghostly hands, these fingers of the final caress.
Stone by stone I built my tower, higher and higher into the meaningless sky; these toiling hands built it for you, falling girl - how dare you reject my epic design. To make it taller than the tallest trees, that was my aim, and I accomplished my task, I did it for you; I dreamed of us walking to the summit, step-by-step, arm-in-arm: we could look down on the world as if seated on clouds; but now the world is silent, as still as stony death, and my girl is falling, falling -
Falling girl, there is no way back, with a faint forlorn smile and woebegone heart I watch you fade in slow emotion. Did you ever really know me? Did you ever truly care? I dived into your being with an undying will, wishing for the perfect now, yet what do I see as I stand like a shadow atop the pinnacle of this lonely tower? Nothing; nothing but a token of unrequited devotion: a solitary broken flower.
Fallen girl, vanished from my life, these bitter hands have sealed our fate; it is over, gone, finished, too late. She knew me, in her most intimate dreams, that glint in her eye hid secrets and now soundlessly screams: I love you, forever.
Very good indeed.
There.
:)
It seemed to flow nicely, and was pieced together well.
And another thing is - I feel poetic pieces/stories posted are going to benefit greatly from the ability to post with italics now.
Personally, I'm not good when it comes to poetry, my words always seem to clunky, so I was impressed with this.
