Scarlet Thread

Once lyed a scarlet thread, buried within the grass. 
A wiseman once said, it bares stories of he past. 
It was about 3 inches long, but scripted infinite dreams. 
They say it once belonged, to a loner outside this reality. 
He was brave and strong, nothing was out of his reach. 
Except the angel that he saw...that angel was me. 
I speak on his behalf, for he is in to much pain. 
I was all he ever had, but I couldnt love him that way. 
I feel no remorse, to have left him in the dark. 
I meant not to take course, through his lonesome heart. 
Till this day, as he loses the will to live 
I still cannot say, I felt the way he did. 
He loved me dearly, he put me before his well being 
but to speak sincerely, fate did not have us to be. 
I left him a thread, so he may visualize his past, 
but after all was said, it lyes alone in the grass.
