In the end how could I simply stay away?
When a simple hello causes my resolve to sway
I long for those peaks past this veil of deceit, past a forced mask worn
To hide how my heart has been ripped and torn
...
Loneliness is a terrible curse
A sickness with no cure
A tragedy in the place of a happy ending
It builds in the deep places of the minds afflicted until it swells to the surface
...
There is no longer time for talking
Only a few seconds left for walking
A lingering moment to merely pause
To enjoy our memories and all of their flaws
...
It's almost unjust the effect you cause
Like a timid rose you are, beautiful even in silence
Rays of brilliant light reflecting on your long wavy petals
The only scene even comparable to a smile as bright and refreshing as a summer's eve
...
You are to me as light to the sun
As water to the grand ocean
Your affection like a drug
And I the faithful addict
...
