Watching from a rowboat,
Fighting to stay afloat.
I have found the perfect beauty,
And although she will never love me,
My feelings shall never fade.
I will always love this mermaid.
I know not what is right or wrong,
Only that my journey was long.
But with every stroke of the oars,
I sought out the one I adore.
I see now your smile so bright,
And I know the journey was worth the fight.

One last kiss,
One last embrace.
Then I go,
A new world to face.
A world of fighting,
A world of fears.
A world of sorrow,
And a world of tears.
But this world is my home,
I cannot escape!
But I cannot just cry,
Let my shoulders drape.
So I will dream of a better world,
A world without screaming,
A world without hate.
My world must end,
A new one to take its place,
But I will not go with it,
I will find my escape.

I am a relic from long ago,
Trapped in a new age body.
I have been called an old soul,
But these times are not for me.
I belong in an era long past.
Where love meant something,
And you don't rush through things way too fast.
Now love is just a word,
Life is a race,
And even if you scream, you are not heard.
Let me take you back.
To show you things before they went wrong.
Back to my own time, where we both belong.

Through all my life, I have been lost,
Wandering through the darkness,
Searching for a light at all cost.
But never have I found such a light,
That burns even one thousandth as bright
As the light that is our love.
When we kiss i feel as a dove,
Flying over mountains,
Soaring over trees,
And not once have i ever felt as free,
As when our lips touch,
And our troubles seem to vanish.

Never once have I stopped loving you,
And never will my love ever end.
You are my flame in this darkness,
And you light up my world with a single kiss.
The flames you set in my heart,
They are yet another work of art.
When we are alone, and I look in your eyes
I can feel the love you feel, these are no lies.

The way I feel for you, is like nothing I've felt before,
And i know one day, that our love shall be much more,
Than anything I've ever thought possible.
And for me to stop loving you is impossible.

Empty promises and broken dreams.
All I have and my heart's screams.
These tear filled eyes,
Are so difficult to disguise.
My mask has been shattered,
Because she is all that mattered.
My heart burned too hot,
I feel like I've been shot.
Seared, singed all that remains is ashes.
I look down at my arms and see only ****** gashes.
The pain haunts me,
And my own stupidity taunts me.
I've burned the remains of a broken heart,
So here I am, back at the start.
