[an unperson poem]
each
time
that I left
you found me
more
appealing
'til your
face
was just a
shape I'd
create
in the white
specks of my
ceiling
but
memories fade
and our soft
paint
is peeling
with each
graceless mistake
it flakes and
falls revealing
an immense
lack of faith
and feigned
lustre concealing
cracks in our
foundation
and the baseness
of our feelings
grown
faint
like a
fate
I no longer
believe in...
[and epilogue]
(I once
hoped we
might ignite
but we
don't
don't
don't
don't
I used to
wait on
your return
now I pray
you wont)

I ended up using the brackets for
the open & close, though originally
I had the words "an unperson poem"
and "and epilogue" in bold instead.
I just felt the brackets worked better.
