Bittersweet

I look at you
I see the forgotten possibilities
Reflection brings unwanted memories
take them away, please.

You look at me
You see the pain
Brought upon by indecision;
a hand extended in vain.

I look to myself
The scar has healed
The picture has been broken beyond repair
Our fates, nearly sealed.

A bond exists between us, still
The nature of which perplexes me
Yet I walk away while I can
While there is no "we".
