[hometext] => If anyone has tried to be friends with a past love than they will understand this poem.
[bodytext] => I see the reflection of what was once pure, as I grasp for something more mature. Holding on to the one I call Dear, captivated by your love so sincere. You ruled my life for twenty months to the day; dictated my time and made me obey. I’m corrupted by your kind repose, you’re like the dew on a perfect rose. Please free me from past devotion, and into the ambit of lost emotion. Not stranger, nor lover, nor friend; you hold my heart to the bitter end. Oh, Elizabeth! I curse your name, and relinquish my heart all the same. Your presence gives such great satisfaction yet causes a frustrating distraction. What ills you induce you do not know. Just leave me, leave me, leave me to grow. The mirror reveals what I can not stand, my reflection shows your endless brand.
