Tears

Tears No thief in the night stole her from me, It was a mighty tempest, like you would witness at sea. For a time she was safe, far from harm’s way, Until her trust a friend did betray. Looking back on all I have done, A different life path may have saved my loved one. But a life of power and greed I did follow, Now my loved one is gone, and my soul it is hollow. I have missed her terribly all through the years, Now all I have left is her memory in tears.
