The Wondering

I need a quick explanation! How is it I've ended up here? Why has Love dashed away and stranded me, While I hold this mad wolf by the ears?! How is it that dreams become nightmares? When does the mutation begin? Logic could excuse the reason for these queries - Yet I knock at his door and find he's not in; And Cupid-his aim-where has it gone, And how in my cause did he miss? The pain of his error now weighs on my lips - Each time I remember her kiss. So it's must I,alone in my wondering, Will search on for solace and clues, Illuminate that on which the darkness has fallen - Darkness,in all its fine blacks and blues. I'll spin wistful thoughts 'round my Heart once again - How I felt when it still was alive. I pray,Love,that you'll revive my Heart soon - Bring a close to what Grief has contrived...
