We Were Not To Be
Waves erupted love washed away,
Evening sun set, twilight darkens the bright day.
We part again you and me for love leaf is torn,
Each of us forlorn and stabbing pain has to be borne.
Reality carves its sharp claws on our shallow lives,
Every scar on our heart will not heal the stabs of devilish knifes.
Nights makes the devilish ego drain,
Oh! Why me and not you to step forward again,
Time will intone our strained love to emotions refrain.
Try again to get near her a voice yells in my head,
Oh! Why should it be me? These “devilish chants” to my brains are fed.
Believe in parted destiny my mixed emotions preach,
Ever in this life again your love’s passionate arms never reach.
