The Skies of dark gray have vanished from my view The touch of her warm embrace has left many tears To be deprived is to remember the pain of one This winter of black is the harbinger of my fear With each pa**ing day my love for life withers away The face of joy I once wore is now only a dream And with a kiss the darkness began to seal the bitterness and the joy. (I now know) My sadness birthed this pain And with a sigh, the walls of my sanity collapsed within and without(I now see) My life will fade away This is forever This facade of fading happiness has been shattered Sense the moon rising over my plains of despair, Eternal I shall rest in this dead garden decorated with tombs And await for her arrival from behind the black sun At last the souls in the candle fade And my eyes shall rest forever With the portrait of the shade Carved deep in my dying soul
