Stolen Serenity

I saw happiness this day,
I merely stumbled upon it,
I saw two lovers sitting afar,
Who had escaped the world.

They escaped the noise,
Within each other’s arms.
And be oblivious to all,
Under the veil of love.

Their eyes did show me,
A happiness you stole,
Steal my smile you did,
And kept it for yourself.

But you also took my heart with you,
So no matter how many tears I cry,
My love for you would always grow,
Despite the tears that burn my face.

A Blaspheming God

Eight years ago, I fell,
I fell for a true angel,
Most beautiful of them all,
The purist one of them all.

You were the envy of every mortal,
You were the envy of Aphrodite,
In a jealous rage she cursed you,
“Never be loved! Only be lusted!”

All would lust except for one,
But you would never see it,
Your soul, never visited by love,
Turned bitter in the company of lust.

But as Aphrodite rejoiced upon Olympian Peak,
I made the unbreakable vow to Hades, for you,
Either I save your soul and show you the light,
Or burn in the deepest pits of the underworld.

The Healing

Even though I fall,
Into the valley of death,
I shall fear no evil,
For I am nearing peace.

It was eight years ago,
The wound is just as fresh,
The wound is just as deep,
The wound hurts as bad.

You showed me the light,
The light in morbid darkness,
The light which freed the captive,
Which left me a fatal wound.

The wound had never healed,
The pain had never ceased,
Intensifying with every tear,
And torments without mercy.

To escape the torture,
I journeyed to the cliff,
And threw myself headlong,
Into the valley of death.
