Love not ment to last

by Vanessa   Apr 17, 2007


Standing alone in the new dawn's mist
Remembering how we first kissed
Silvered in the moon eclipse
You taste still lingers on my lips
Crimson tears fall from saddened eyes
A heart once pure, now crushed by lies
Faded words on a withered page
No longer innocent, corrupted with rage
Once fragile soul, now dark and dead
Confusion set, within my head

I can't help but remember, the love we shared
The emotions so bare
The secrets that we have never told
Of our love, now grown so cold
It became an empty tomb
No ray of light cutting though the gloom

Anger now has turned to hate
I sometimes wonder if it was fate
That led us down this road
Or if it was all the lies you told
I would continue to cry in the rain
trying to wash away the pain
If it wasn't such a waste of time
You'll forever haunt my mind
With spirits of the past
Ours was a love, that wasn't meant to last
