Evil

I am horrid.
Knowing where I stand,
Where my heart lies,
I chose to take another.
I've chosen to make a woman happy,
When I know it can only be temporary.

I have given myself to her,
When my thoughts spin in another hemisphere.
I have warned her about getting too close.
But this,
This is much worse,
It's potential for pain is much greater.

How am I
To look her in the eye,
And say I want her?
How could I do such a thing,
When my heart and soul
Exist on another plane?

This happiness I give her,
It will fade away.
It will dissipate
When I can't give her,
All the love that she deserves.
Simply because, I am evil.
