How does it feel to be on the other side of the field?
The battles within ridiculing the shield
The rules I stuck to with such arrogance
I broke them myself in such innocence
Egotistical I were, but it won’t be the same
Mocked love, in oblivion of cupid’s vindictive aim
Innovative I were, but I cannot dodge this pain
Miserable I became, when the victim reigned
“One cannot appraise a person so high
How can a life be over with an instant bye?”
Pragmatic taunts, but it was a lie
Cultivating conflict inside, as i die
I didn’t know what I had until it wasn’t mine
Excruciating void and no ownership of time
The pain I hide, my pretentiousness!
Smiles i pursued, in lieu of happiness

This is a sad sad testimony to beautiful poetic truth.
