Oblivious

You wrote a four letter word upon my throat
Sealed with a kiss
It's the consequence I miss

A second glance of dismissal
But my eyes were cast in the glimmer
Infatuation, a second nature
To an oblivious heart
You spurned from the start

Play for safety or play for keeps
An uneven foothold
Upon we meet
To risk it all
Or claim defeat
Ever the defeatist
You defeated us

If sunshine could keep the rain at bay
Suffice it to say
The rays could evaporate the sorrow
But you won't believe

In second chances
In ever after
You bite the hand
That believes in you

A second glance of dismissal
But my eyes were cast in the glimmer
Infatuation, a second nature
To an oblivious heart
You spurned from the start

A feckless fable
A hapless heir abdicates the throne
To be alone
No hero's journey
No promise of true love
Just isolation
Till the end of their days

If sunshine could keep the rain at bay
Suffice it to say
The rays could evaporate the sorrow
But you won't believe

In anything
In anyone
In a shooting star
That orbits where you are
