to ruffle some feathers

beneath the somber glow of the hiding moon
and the lonesome seranade of the howling wind
i stared at the vastness of the empty space
the void that was made when you left

with every moment that passes by
all i could see are the tears in your eyes
still i cannot forget the pain i have caused
to that once jovial heart of yours that i broke

no matter how much pain i endure
still i cannot fathom the hurt you feel
and behind the required smile that i put forth
no one will see the distraught soul that is me.

i pray only that you be happy
to find someone who desereves you more than me
for no longer should i be allowed to feel thy care
not even the tiniest morsel, i should be spared.

even the happiest memories we have shared
conjure the tears that i have kept hidden
for i know i will never feel that way again
for i have lost my chance to hold your heart

every night i ask for the elusive slumber
not to rest my weary soul but to remember
to be able to imagine your smile that i havent seen
and to hear your laughter that i havent heard since

but as justice would have it i still was deprived
for only the haunting ghost visits me at night
waking me every chance it gets
reminding me that i should never forget

so badly do i wish that someday i could call you mine
to return to those happy moments of a forgotten time
but as i would know no wishes comes true
for a person so evil other than to be rued...
