A World Once Starry

When I look back, I see how everything was bad. When I try to compare, I see the life I never had. Lost in the lies, That I had considered the truth. But then I was brought out of the dark, And gave away my youth. I worked and tried my best, To protect her and I. At a young age, I learned not to let anyone see me cry. I fought for her innocence, And as far as I know, I have won. But along the way I became angry, Because she had something I want. I turned into something, A monster I had known before. I wanted to stop, But I had no key to this locked door. I thought that she deserved it, I locked any doubt I had in a vault. But inside I knew, That none of this was her fault. I was jealous of everything she had, Her ignorance of our situation. Though I tried to control myself, There was just too much temptation. Still, I have my reasons, And no regrets. Because of me, She will stand up to every threat. Because of me, She will fight. Over time, Everything will turn out right. I don't regret doing things That must be done. Just remember all of the good things, While I'm gone. But even so, I brought darkness To a world Once starry. Please, know that I am sorry..
