A Lover's Torment
You came like a blazing fire
Scorching everything I knew
Through the flames, I admire
With a love that's new
Talking with a blissful voice
Melting my heart with a fierce heat
Overtaking me without a choice
Knowing I could never cheat
My thoughts travel towards you
Tearing my soul in two
Waiting for the soothing dew
The lines of love becoming askew
Tormented by your touch
Fighting my one desire
I've never hurt this much
Waiting for this to backfire
Should I leave you behind
And live with my regret
To end this soulish bind
Ending my hearts secret
Goodbye, my love
This blaze is gone
Waiting for this hole to move
But my love for you will not be undone.
