How far your heart

 

Yes, my lover’s heart has turned cold

A heart that I thought made of gold

Yet its stories remain untold

For his freedom and love he sold

♦

How sad that your heart’s far from mine

Instead of love, peace, only wine

Oblivious you sit there and dine

Flawless, an image so pristine

♦

Lies in which you choose to wallow

Fishing for a death to borrow

Forget pain, forget the sorrow

Let’s write in two a new morrow

♦

Your love came to me like a song

My blood runs thick, forever strong

Trying, you could do me no wrong

Plight to us will never belong

♦

Love tells me of a bond so tight

Not mere words, not lust, nor delight

Something beyond, a ray of light

Tearing the darkness of our night

♦

While my life oozed, wilted away

Love has knocked, entered, wants to stay

Silently, hands clasped again I shall pray

That it will want, that it just may
