• Shadows fall forever
    Across an aching heart,
    Though anchor'd, stills a rippling pond
    That wind will never start.

    She cannot see through blinded eyes
    Filmed, they've quickly shuttered
    The tragedy of tragedies
    A dream instantly fluttered.

    I might've stood eternal,
    Save I was pried away
    The grasping claws of devil's dogs
    My love has ripped astray.
