Love lured him to the woods

Where he wrote her songs

of everlasting and eternity

of giving his all – his everything

 

Love was his heart and his hurt

She left him there

wasting away,

falling to pieces

Singing empty words with soundless tunes

and heartbreaking listlessness

 

He wants to speak heartache

But he gave his heart away

And no longer feels the hurt

or knows the love

or hears the songs
