#1011 Purge a Path

I would purge a path
to your door if you would leave
spicy directions

I must admit I'm kind of dense
I used to think your preference
because I was helplessly intense
was for the peace of my absence

I'd purge a path away, it's true
make you swear on wings I flew
go entirely scorched earth too
just to keep from hurting you

Though I hate it, god forbid 
unfortunately that's what I did
nauseous with fear, I ran and hid
I promise the hurt was unintended 

I wish now that I would have known
that what I did left you all alone
what remains is me on my own
left with these seeds I have sown

I must admit, much to my chagrin
this hero hardly ever seems to win
what a long, strange trip it's been
and that's all it is, this tale is fin.

*shrug*
I feel like since trying to reconcile some things with myself, I have less to write poetry about.
I guess I'm boring, so I'm dredging up shit for funsies.

We burned it down,
all that came before
to purge a path for us,
we turned around
to see destruction
in our wake

we laughed,
it didn't matter,
we had each other,
and the world
could smoulder
while we watched
from our own
secret universe.

No need to purge a
Path to this heart, you had me
At our first hello.
