Sentenced To Love
Sentenced to love
Since I broke your heart my life is like a desert with no water, never feeling the kiss of a single raindrop.
Lonely days as a single cloud, floating across wide open sky, not even that of a bird my eyes see or company to keep.
Wanting to call, to hear from sweet missed lips, words whispered in an ear missing the song of the angel they cry out to hear.
From distant lands muted songs over eons and down ages, you calling my name, rings out loud and clear.
Never felt or wanted this ache and pain that rises from so deep within, that no one from past or future can name, a tsunami of tears pour from a wounded soul when a song brings back memories of times together washes over me.
I see a sunrise a moon set on the horizon, I feel myself in your tender arms,
rose scented moments no longer we share.
How do I end it will you ever be replaced? Help me please, take this cup of bitterness from my hands won’t someone set me free?
My prison my love, the bars my misery. The guard mistakes that hold the key, that just won’t let me be.
