Loveless

Here I lay,
vulnerable and broken before you.

My mind is empty,
my heart is still.
All is silent this late October night.

If I had known the end was neigh,
If I had known the world would guide us here.
I would have taken my life then.

How is it that lovers;
fall,
shatter,
break?
When it all began with
passion,
lust,
joy.

How is it that our love
has crumbled,
faltered.
When we felt so deeply each other.
Is it just how things are supposed to be?
Can love truly be eternal?

Here I lay,
naked and afraid before you.
Our love lay in shambles around us.
Perhaps this is what we were destined for.
Perhaps no love can last...
