Suffocation
There once was a girl who brought light to the dark
She was free as a bird and her soul had a spark
She found a young boy who had darkness inside
So she opened his heart to the light he once shied
They spent many years of warmth and of love
They relied on each other - it fit like a glove
But on the horizon the storm clouds did loom
For the unknowing future of love was their doom
He left on a trip to discover the world
It was hard to depart his beautiful girl
Time travelled on until news came one day
She'd declared war on love then she threw it away
He rushed on back home till the wind made him numb
But she'd made up her mind long before he had come
He pleaded and begged and the both of them cried
But she said 'let me live', then she left and he died
The darkness caved in, the walls toppled down
And thunderous waves crushed his heart till it drowned
He had lost everything that he'd once loved so dear
He had lost his one love and his will and his care
He sat on a cliff and stared at the sea
At the infinite waves of dejection to be
Alone in the cold, despair in his soul
He had nowhere to run - he was no longer whole
