Malice
If I'm going to tell you all the wrong
I will do it thouroughly
I'll speak of all the malicious ways
I am hurt irrefutably.
The regret buries me deep
With no oxygen to hold
I can't find my way out
Of all the lies you told
I'll speak of the wonderful words
You told me in the night
With a tinge of pretense
I wouldn't dare to fight
I'll repeat this friendship
With a quick review and a smile
Because we were still true
Even for a little while
I'll see you when I'm sleeping
And when my conscious is astir
Even tainted with regret
I'll remember the dream pure
Dawn is approaching quickly
So I must say goodbye
Because reality is cruel
And I can't live this lie

First of all, irrefutably is an awesome word; had to get that off my chest.
And when my conscious is astir even tainted with regret I'll remember the dream pure.
I don't know for sure what that means to you, but my interpretation is that even though bad things have happened, your trying not to let that infect the good times. I think that's an important lesson in life that isn't easy to overcome and I'm glad you wrote that because I've never thought much about it but it's something we all go through.
Your poem kicks serious poetic butt. I hope you keep writing, I like your style.
This is beautiful.
Very well written :)
