Come now again have you
To weave yet another tapestry
A memorial, a testament to my beloved heart
The heart you destroyed with poetic justice
Gave me the belief of comfort and endearment
Allowed me to luxuriate in paradise’s arms
Stole all my sorrows, absorbed all my fears
Then when the sun was warm
And the breezes and ocean mist kissed my skin
You took the love and the dreams away
Left me crying with intense pain in the night
Forgiveness is a foreign concept
Or at least it once was
But acceptance granted me peace of mind
Left me standing when the pain would have dragged me down
Paradise you showed me is a deceptive lie
A fable, a dream, a desire of what we wish it to be
It exists not in this harsh life we call reality
A barren mind, dragging forth the heartfelt sorrows
Forever retracing the mistakes that lay behind
My heart is barren, just another vital *****
No emotion can touch it, no hate can break it
This is the legacy in which you have left me
But my dearest friends the deeds are done
And now the dreams have fled
So shall the fires that lived inside my soul
