Deadly Love

I heard once of a story They say, heaven has become hell And all the beautiful angels fell Down to Earth, with their broken wings Now only a shell of what they used to be But we humans were not meant to see The heavenly until our souls flew free Damned be those weak bodies we are in I was never made to breathe The breath that comes through her soft lips Never to kiss, those heavenly white cheeks That ignited to a hint of red, every time our eyes met I was never meant to hold her gentle figure In an embrace, for she was my souls mirror Those rivers that flow on my face Were lost in an empty race with the rhythm in my chest That played a calm melody, until it had to depart I saw an angel, she stole my heart She made my life worth living, and her leaving made it hard We weren’t meant to love one another, so she left me scarred I am just another lonely man, lost in misery Now heartless stuck in history Writing these words of love, to the woman that dove me in misery
