Gone (You were never here)

A seasoned conversation starter
I've nothing more to say
She weighs in like a funeral
I blink and turn away

Summer laughs like an only child
Beneath its warm embrace
I swelter like the damned
And stoop to hide my face

Will you show me where I've gone wrong
Where I've missed the mark?
Was I born to fall so short
And never rise again?

There's depths to depthless eyes
And truth I cannot know
Like siamese twins conspire
Another sucker-punch blow

I know you never realised
That's only made it worse
Before you go, I'd like to say
Forever is a curse
