Was It Worth It?

Some things in life
demand great sacrifice
for its
worth

Some people in life
inspire deep love
for their
essence

Some gestures in life
touch hearts forever
they are
priceless

Some decisions in life
wound beyond repair
cannot be
undone

What was once priceless
Who once inspired
Now stark
cold

Was it worth it?
To create illusions
And lose
me?

What did you gain?
Puppet on strings
Minus the
soul

What did you lose?
An unconditional heart
Unquestioning love
me

Was it worth it?
I guess so
Its only
me
