Loneliness Follows

She entered the room like an angle from Heaven Her beauty and aura mirrored a goddess impression My soul was eclipsed, my heart was divided Intentions unclear, but thoroughly invited Trapped by her spell, my passion provoked Feelings of love remained cleverly cloaked Our eyes joined like pieces of a magical puzzle An eternal stare even time couldn’t muzzle Anxiously intrigued, I gathered my thoughts What would I say? My stomach in knots Her warm glowing smile had found its way in Easing my tension, I gave her a grin Alone in the darkness, we meet with a kiss Pleasure unbound in a web of sweet bliss Lips soft like roses, wild and pure Gathered from gardens of mystical lure To venture further, you must pass a test Are your intentions to play like the rest? Holding her closely, I pondered this label If love was a game, my cards on your table She playfully teased as we made our escape Her hair woven silk in amber wine grape Our bodies embraced drenched under midsummer skies Love's symphony played as stars danced in her eyes The moon went to rest and the sun had awaken I borrowed the time of a love that was taken Was I playing the fool? Is it all an illusion? Bad timing had caused this painful conclusion She gazed at me softly, her eyes full of tears You stole my heart, but he has my years I cant watch him suffer, I feel so much guilt Please understand, its not how I'm built I'm sorry my love, but I just cannot stay I'll dream of you often, and wait for the day If not in this lifetime, then surely you'll see Fate sealed my heart closed, only you have the key
