Lost

Seemingly so long ago, I fell in love For the first time in my life. So young, so innocent, so naive, My heart was struck with a knife. He swore on the air in his lungs, The blood in his very veins That he'd be at my side forever Abolish my fears and pains. Together, we ran through puddles, Laughing in freshness of rainy days. Together, we sat in the garden, Holding each other in the sun's rays. But one way or another All that's good must end. His heart slowed, his eyes dulled. I tried, but his spirit wouldn't mend. Now I am alone. Two has been reduced to one. All I can hope for, all I can dream of Is that we'll reunite when my life is done.
