Once we were lovers mind, body, and soul Eros has flown, only philia remains Sadness takes hold, no longer am I whole Distance creeps in; the heart is inconsolable I am drowning in sorrow’s cold grey rain Once we were lovers mind, body, and soul Love is diminished, leaving a gaping hole Deep inside. Our connection slowly wanes Sadness takes hold, no longer am I whole I feel I am only playing a role Toleration fades, leaves only disdain Once we were lovers mind, body, and soul Failed actions have taken a painful toll Slowly dying, overtaken by pain Sadness takes hold, no longer am I whole Future uncertain we’ve lost all our goals This slow erosion lets sorrow’s madness reign Once we were lovers mind, body, and soul Sadness takes hold, no longer am I whole krs August 2, 2015
