The Love That Died
I’ll never forget when we first met
Fireworks lit up the dark night skies
As I held you tightly in my arms
I could see the love in your eyes
With you my world finally felt whole
I believed your love would be my last
Our life together was that of dreams
But all good things are never steadfast
It started with little quarrel we’d have
Then in a flash our love had gone bad
Your smile one day became extinct
And we were always sad or mad
Our fights started growing more intense
And we had begun to always yell
That love that once pleased my heart
For both of us had become a living hell
The woman I thought I’d love forever
And the one who I had made my wife
Has now become a distant stranger
Who heartbreakingly is no longer in my life
