Awake

"With Every appearance by you, blinding my eyes

I can hardly remember the last time I felt like I do

You're an angel disguised

And you're lying real still

But your heart beat is fast just like mine

And the movie's long over

That's three that have passed, one more's fine…"

Six Days Ago, 

 

   I watched as my beloved left with her guard, Luke. I wanted to end this with Monica. So, I turned to her and faced her. My heart doesn't respond to her the way it responded to my Princess. I have to be true this time. 

"I'm sorry, Monica. We can't be together again. I'm breaking it off with you. I love my mate and I wanted to be with her."
