Love's Final Goodbye

As a queen by his side, I truly enjoyed the ride Always loved myself as seen through his eyes His arrival was perfectly timed Together, we were magnificently aligned A man of righteous soul and powerful mind Body like a temple, strong and defined The perfect incarnation of love, from whom the meaning of man was derived Never knew true joy or true pain until the day that he arrived Until the day we took that ride Over the clouds we soar, through them we glide Destiny is fulfilled from the moment our worlds collide Even now as a grown woman I still question why Why happy moments occupy the shortest days of our lives Why we allow love to be broken down by lie after lie Why all those lonely nights I cry, To mourn a love that has left me so low after lifting me so high For years and years believe me I tried But my mind continued to uncover truths my love couldn't deny My heart suffered blow after blow but I kept it inside Cruel words add insult to injury always taken in stride For so long I was far to willing to swallow my pride For this man whom I had slowly come to despise Passively awaiting love's final goodbye
