She held me,
But now I'm lonely.
My senses search,
For what I've lost,
Never feel her warmth again.
Pleasures given,
And now they're lost.
No need to love,
No recipient of a smile.

Lost my heart,
Broken and always cracked.
Hurts and hurts,
Pains and pains,
Tears flow at an empty bed.
Darkness now embraces,
For my candle extinguished.
Light that once protected,
Now wounds me in the black.

Where is the light?
How can I live?
She is gone,
And I will never have,
That beauty again.
She held me once,
But never again,
Forever, now, I'm lonely.
