Love and loss
I promised you protection
Once you passed my heart’s election
But alas I am only human
A fact that has now been proven
I won’t again make the same mistake
Because no soul can my heart retake
Years we lived together in love intemperate
But now for all eternity we lie separate.
No darkness can rival that of a pained and tortured soul
My heart was taken and raked over fields of burning coal
I lie in eternal pain and endless doubt
Over my broken life’s future route.
My heart has crumbled to dust and my blood to sand
As love and loss are two things that walk hand-in-hand
Oh loathsome siren I gave my soul heedless the cost
Another victim of loves great holocaust.
The sun will no longer shine on my skin so pale
As I wrestle in this darkness with my careless fail
I am in this darkness forever lost
As I like many others have experienced love and loss.
