Dying love

Light on the eyes
Heavy on the heart
It was a union doomed from the very start
The love within could not overcome the dark
No appreciation
No validation
For the murder of their nation
A confession
In confusion
As the conflict parts
Takes with it the curtain of denial
Leaves them bare
Naked
And on trial
Debating wills lost along the rocky road of life
Tenderness forgotten, beaten in strife
The lore of sin to catch their eyes
Greener grass and glittering gold
For it all they've sold their souls
For only once does true love find
Accepted by the wise
Rejected by the blind.

Alone with a memory

Isn't it funny how after so many years
I can remember every word u spoke to me, how i can still hear you so clearly?
Or the solid beat of your heart beneath my head as you breathe. The way time stopped as your burning skin touched mine.
The way I'd hate my name
Until it was on your lips
That one night you held me under the twinkling stars
As the sea glittered and sang
The melody in our hearts
From afar the dazzling lights of ships
Added to complete that perfect serene scene
In our last night of love; of bliss
In your eyes the truth u did not hide
For i knew u from the inside
Isn't it funny they said
What love will make you sacrifice?
This would be our only night
Wrap me in your delights
Kiss away these wretched tears
That betray my deepest fears
Hold me near
Though you must leave
Grant me one final memory
One final vow
Before the impending despair
Before you disappear.
