Trouble Me No More

So much beauty wasted

On a soul that chose to never see

Beyond their understanding

Such an investment

Of time and emotion

That amounted to naught

But lessons learned

Poor judgment and poorer character

What a shame

Such promise held

And cast aside

Into the nothing

That surrounds them

And still calls their name

Let it draw you in

I shall not suffer

For your decisions

For your mistakes

For your choice to retreat

Further into the darkness

I only sought to pull you from

Sleep now in the shadow

And trouble me no more
