Way Down Deep
Into the mystery of this heart which beats
There rises an unspeakable desire
To seek the place where passions reign
To escape this life devoid of joy or pain
From isolation without end in sight
In radiant truth I dream each night
Of happier times we once shared
For they, at least - showed me you cared
Sweet, sweet were those times my love
Alas, I will never know them anymore
My heart shouts out to me -“Close the door!”
This mystery has departed to return no more!
