Destructive solitude


Waiting here impatiently
in this secluded cove.
Longing just for us to be
the embodiment of our love.

Surrounded by the darkness,
the light far up ahead.
Left here bathing in loneliness
where words remain unsaid.

The journey that has taken you
your flee to worlds unknown.
Eternal, unlike the love you knew,
is my love that I have shown.

The love we share, it has no end
it’s unconditional and pure,
but in your heart fear and doubt blend
and left you insecure.

Slowly tearing down the love
that made us into one.
Left me in this secluded cove
the mourning has begun.
