Impractical Flame

Impractical Flame

Even though

I hate you
for shattering my heart
with your cruel betrayals

Even though

the deep wound
you inflicted still bleeds

Even though

I have every right
to curse your memory

I wish you happiness
wherever you are tonight

Some would say

I'm a fool
for letting you
off the hook so easily 

but there's just no way
I could stay
in hate with you

Is this misguided
unrequited love?

Definitely
