lessened

I can't say that it's not fair  
because we both know that rules in love  
are nothing but crutches;  
for tourists  
   
and I was there  
when you;  like I melted away  
from any outside  
with the authencity  
of rabid surrender  
   
we stood together under fallen pillar  
as the castles roof arose  
   
but please don't cry again to me;  
under the blue-moon of regret  
or tell me how much you love me
how you will always love me,  
but that our drizzle was too chilly  
   
and your rain runs off timers
   
please don't take advantage of me  
and the waiting I; for so long  
made a pilgrimmage  
   
no  
   
don't  
make anymore promises through eyes  
that your risk can't honor  
   
know    
that I have waited enough  
and have finally become empowered  
   
you  
are  
at last reduced  
to what you are  
   
slightly less than  
   
perfect
