A Friendship Ends
The heart is broken with sorrow
It beats ever so slowly as you fade away
As I try ever so hard to pick up the shattered pieces
You seem to come along and tear the fragile thing away
All I do is succumb to your every word
Never fighting you for hope that someday
You will understand the pain you put me through.
You once stood tall in the heavens bathed in light
Yet now all you do is sit in hell and burn
Your once angelic voice shattered by the screams of pain
Your beauty withered and blackened by the burning flames
I wish to return you to heaven were you belong
Yet you keep rejecting the offer and wish to burn in hell.
So all I can do is let my tears run cold
As I know our friendship will never grow.
A Stolen Life
You poisoned my love for life
With your serpent tongue that spun a web of lies
A thousand kisses of an angels touch
That washed away the pain of the setting sun
O what a fool I was to believe in such a feeling
Such as hope could conquer the despair of my heart
Shattered like the mirrors reflecting the many monsters
Of my personality leaving me alone for eternity.
You showed me the way to the dark light we all fear
Hand in hand peace in our hearts as we took the final fall
Our love for life erased away like a distant memory
Never to return to the father land for the greatest of all sins.
O what a fool I was to believe in such a feeling
Such as hope could conquer the despair of my heart
Shattered like the mirrors reflecting the many monsters
Of my personality leaving me alone for eternity.
My last tear I shed for you before they dry away in the flames of hell
My love for life may be gone from the lightest of light
However yours has just begun to burn brighter than the sun.
