Never Reached Eternity

Hiding in the dark corner,
befriending my heart's shadows,
I sit and think of my love
that trembles towards the gallows.
Never did I understand
happiness' impermanence,
that rushes through our two souls
blending them as one essence.

But the pieces of my life
no longer hide illusion.
They break and fall before me
as the shards cut through my skin.
The blood dripping down beneath
my cold, white, lifeless body
hurts me just like our love that
never reached eternity.
