Rusted Love

In the dark he lives, rusted, turned into ashes 
Black are those ashes from the heart burned the most
Those very woods provide shadow to his grave
Where he wondered in search of thy love

For years he roamed in the woods 
With just a dreamful sight of you in his mind 
Loving the virtual you in the sky and in the trees
Feeling your beauty in the sand below covered with flowers

With all the passion he possessed in love for thee
The only girl he ever loved from the core of his heart
What was it that droved him so far
To do the thing that no man would imagine

Best thing he might have ever done, for world so wrong
The only reason, the only thing is because love is so strong
