Lost and Damned

Lost And Damned We met beneath a kiss of the moon I'm not sure if I was hollow or whole You took my hand with some restraint Eyes as wide as those of a doe A hunter by nature I sought your heart Running through fields of wheat Your scent lingering on the wind I needed more than anything to find you But yours was an elusive soul It was only after years of running That I found you battered and beaten Lost and damned Those years were the loneliest of my life As I pursued you through the fields Demons attempted to persuade me to quit But they failed as I scented your love And when I took you in my arms the very first time The purity of your gaze washed over my soul Your eyes were bewildered and wild Yet they held the love I had sought for so long We met beneath a kiss of the moon And I'm sure now that I felt so very hollow But I took your hand without restraint Knowing you were the lost and damned
