My Eternal Grief
I’ve been forsaken by perpetual pain,
sweltering in sorrow and deep misery-
Now only memories of despair remain.
FOR GRIEF-STRICKEN AM I...
My heart encompassed by an ebony stain,
enraptured by dejection and injury-
In my mind she dies a thousand times in vain.
Rescue me from dolor, unshackle this chain,
please find me relief, bestow true liberty-
This poignant disappointment is so arcane.
FOR GRIEF-STRICKEN AM I...
