Revive Me

Another night has gone by,
I lay here, eyes wide awake,
Struggling for a free breath,
I am alive but not for long.

Another morning has gone by,
The same routine continues,
Wearing this smiling mask,
As I have forgotten how to.

The sun sets before my eyes,
That beautiful star vanished,
Faded deep into the horizon,
To shine on lands unknown.

As the sun shall surely rise,
My love for you surely grows,
As the sun shall surely set,
My heart’s strength surely fades.

The day is certainly not far away,
When the red sun will ascend,
And you will find me lying here,
With white eyes and a silent heart.

The End Is Near

Eight years ago I was blissful,
For I felt love for the first time,
Felt the wondrous power in me,
Felt the presence of my own angel.

As eight years slowly passed,
I was destroyed by its power,
My heart seething in this pain,
My soul mangled beyond revival.

What the learned say is true,
About the strength of love,
How it can give one meaning,
How it can wreck one’s life.

Eight years ago I felt its brilliance,
Bringing me unending happiness,
Happiness all because of your light,
Happiness which exists within fables.

Today I feel its savage powers,
My bruised heart beats so slowly,
Yet ‘Love’ continues this suffering,
The pain is beyond any imagination.

Today I appeal to you, my angel,
Save me! In the name of love!
Stop this pain! It’s far too harsh
Save me! Before I lose myself!
