Cruel Gods

Why have the cruel gods cursed me so?
Why must they torment me?
They send Her to me.
The girl I love,
The girl I want,
The girl I cannot have.
They give me a taste of pure bliss, dreams of a wondrous life.
Then the savagely rip it away from my grasp, yet still the dangle Her in front of me.
I must endure it.
Everyday, they give me a small hint of Her.
I can see Her, I can smell Her.
But whenever I think I might have Her, they take her away.
Sometimes I wish they would completely starve me of Her, purge my soul of Her.
But then I realize, some is better than nothing.
Or is it?
The only thing I can do now is beg them to stop.
Ask for forgiveness of what ever my offense was,
to deserve this evil, malevolent treatment.
I just hope one day they will stop this.
By either giving me Her, or completely eradicating all my memories of Her.
I would prefer the former, rather than the latter,
for it is better to have loved and lost,
then never loved at all.
Or is it?
