*I stagger in desolation To find you in isolation Doomed was I, to want that which cannot be  They tell me, ‘beware!’  They not know of the depth of you They tell me, ‘a love you shall not utter, my dear, you cannot alter!’  I tell them what a sweet sweet living they waste Not to have their heart beat for you  They ordained me to change the ballad  They showed me the way to Lethe  I sang the only ballad my heart fathoms And showed them my way to Acheron So in anguish, I dwell! To solely love you In the abyss of my heart But the illusion of us  Is all there is  A secret garden you are  Behind the door of my soul  To you.Out there.  By lou*

the unfathomable ballad of my heart
*I stagger in desolation To find you in isolation Doomed was I, to want that which cannot be  They tell me, ‘beware!’  They not know of the depth of you They tell me, ‘a love you shall not utter, my dear, you cannot alter!’  I tell them what a sweet sweet living they waste Not to have their heart beat for you  They ordained me to change the ballad  They showed me the way to Lethe  I sang the only ballad my heart fathoms And showed them my way to Acheron So in anguish, I dwell! To solely love you In the abyss of my heart But the illusion of us  Is all there is  A secret garden you are  Behind the door of my soul  To you.Out there.  By lou*
