Shadows and shadows
of a love no more.
I chase them and chase them
like a rich mans whore.
I bash my teeth and rent my clothes
pull out my hair and moan in my woes.
Deceived and betrayed
bereft and alone I laid.
Darkness swallows my piteous cry.
My mind screams and begs my heart to die.
Foolish and weeping thing that it is
to miss a one such as his.
Who with velvet tongue and ease
captured that willing organ in me.
Follow him I did with pleasure
and gave him all love unmeasured.
Now the tide has turned
love from me is spurned.
To give all I had
was foolish indeed.
Were I to have been warned,
I would not have paid heed.
To love and give love
was my hearts desire and need.
My own actions I admit and claim
have brought me to this folly and pain.
I've learned my lesson
this I state.
I vow, yet again
on true love...
I will wait.
