I held her once in my embrace, but no more, that is no longer the case.Through the forest I'll walk alone, for this shall be my truest plight.None will know my malcontent, devoid of laughter and of light.I shall endure this now and forever after, every hour, day and night.A senseless act of envy, has stolen you away.Here amongst the living, you may no longer dance and play.Hidden from the world, your wounded soul shall stay. Knowing this however, I will continue on.A plan to fulfill another's wish, and hear her forlorn song.It is nothing you can avoid; she remains while you have gone.Fear, anger, pain, and grief.Are only words, yet they beget relief.Find the solution buried, under your own disbelief.Is your hope imprisoned, my solemn, doubting friend?Forget me now, and be free once again.O’er this ocean of solitude, a rescue none will send.Underneath the stars I’ll wander, without comfort and without rest.Though I will wait patiently, elated I will face this test.Think not of me as I do of you, for this, I only hope for the best. I will play out the cruelest part,Pray, let me not break thy faithful heart.From that which ended, we shall start.The moon will rise, pale in its glory, to bring an end to this our story.
