Solace
The soul looks for solace
Where solace can't be found
Because solace is false
Nothing but a lie
But the lover doesn't perceive
That love doesn't exist
Where passion dares not tread
The mind can not fathom
That solace is a demon
Driven by no master
Only human vices
But the lover can't concieve
That passion ceases
Where love is unmade
The heart seeks solace
Yet always in vain
Because solace is as
Deceitful as love itself
