Is this where love has fled today
that which once, In full bloom
filled the heart and thrilled the soul
that sang to spirit and rang to mind
this is the love we lost today.
whether by accident or foul play
the heart is empty the soul is silent
the spirit is shriveled the love is...
when love is lost how can the whole world be
that which walks heedlessly on
uncaring, unseeing, unmoving, unfeeling
and alas most of all unloving
these are the things of which I feel
A pain, a rage, and a despair
to dread my innermost soul
once a thing of love floating lighter than air
Now be it dragged down
beneath the mire of ones tears
where once there had been two
one had been thine; the remaining is mine
The tears, too , are mine
and mine alone
For alone I am
and alone I'll be
My heart shakes and my soul shudders
My spirit quivers with my innermost...
Disquieted feelings bubbling forth
there to boil and take hold.
Cast me to the shadows
a form of quivering flesh
a harder quaking soul
A bundle of misery, despair, and woe.
How can I again walk in the light
without the light of thine
to comfort and to behold
me who has fallen even in the realm of dream.
and hope...
