Drowning in my Sorrows

I am drowning in my sorrows of losing you
In the shadows upon the earth, my soul sleeps
Only the dark caves will my dreams be true
You are my friend, my lover, my other half I keep
But now your heart belongs to that of someone else
How my heart is torn into pieces--I am now by myself

How one can tear the love apart and replace it with hate
How one must go through hell to know where life begins
Now love is my enemy and misery is my fate
I gain no peace but only revenge rages within
Forever will you be a bad memory upon my bruised mind
For you are not of human kind but of beast-entwined

You left me to die in my sea of blood
How your lies of love echoes within my dark walls
Tears only exist in my eyes with oceans of flood
No more love to endure me but loneliness calls
I trusted you will all of my soul
But you only came and now you must go

To your lover of only despised sweetness
For you are only strong when one's in weakness
And you shall only prevail when one's eyes are blind
In trusting your words--for it is merely of a bogus kind
May luck only confined you to your new life
For you will need it--for only your lover shall be of obscure strife
