Eternal Love…Lost

A dark sadness has fallen over me.
Blacker than ocean waters at midnight,
engulfing my senses.
A blinding pain severs the heart.
I am paralyzed and numb;
          trapped in the furthest recesses of my mind.
No comfort to be found, only the agonized screams
of my dying soul.
I have not the tears for what you have done to me.
Tears of blood, shed for an everlasting love, lost.
Dark winged angels stand their post,
at the four corners of my world.
A heart left vulnerable.
Flames of desire scorch and burn me.
Is this not hell?
You were the water to quench my thirst,
now an empty glass leaves me longing.
It is open for you to see through, the windows of my eyes.
I gave everything of myself.
Now, the vast planes of my soul are empty...
