Appeasement and Confession

“Some things in life are too complicated to explain in any language.”  Haruki Murakami

I can barely bear to remember
All the things done to appease you
So much time and investment
You refused to believe it to be true
Loving you was like loving a stone
And your ways made life fragile
Relationships were a game of chess
Your nature was frigid and cold
Your deepest moment of supposed passion
Was a kiss or smile and then you'd regret
Life is nothing without a companion soul
Your love was a hammer, to me the anvil
And you could never straighten my edge
