Disappointment has become such a dear companion
Every day, we walk alongside one another,
Hands intertwined in a vice grip that never gives
Our shadows meld together like murky puddles of ink
Everything that we do is in sync, now and forever
Disappointment has become one with my heart and soul,
The one and only constant of my life
It’s the sole thing I can always have faith in
Late at night, it blankets me like a sheet of ivory snow,
Lonely and cold, no comfort or warmth to offer
Disappointment has become my most beloved friend,
Offering nothing but bittersweet pain
And inevitable ruin
