Old friends

Hi there,

I knew you once
Though i can't remember now
I recognize your energy
Though I don't know how
When was it that I knew you??

Oh yes, a long time ago
You were young and care free
Beautiful and daring
Too blind to see

As you skipped around love
You ran into me
And gazed with not fear but curiosity

I remember it well
Though it was so many lives before

I was amazed at your innocence
So on you I had pity
This favour I would do

A warning I imparted
Turn back my darling
Save your common sense

Step beyond these gates
It will be to your end.

Alas loves seductions was a call you had to heed

I warned you
That your soul would bleed
Lusts sweet melody called to you
There was nothing more I could do

I see now that you've returned
From loves path; you've been burned

I'm afraid its a little too late
As you see i told you
Love always claims its sacrifice

You had to pay its price

I could have told you what it would cost

But in your dewy eyes
I saw you were already lost

Well now, here you are...
For love your soul you did sell
Returned an empty shell
To join me in this hell

Hello old friend, I told you... I know you well.
