Loosing out
Against the clap of the raging
rain
My heart cries out in a soulful
pain
The last of the footsteps receded
Washed away forever like one
deceased
While I stand, the mourner with
the tears
Bare and alone with my fears
Gone my beam of light
Futile was my fight
Despite that our love felt right
You stole away like a thief in
the night
Miles crept in and we became
poles apart
No applause however for the final
act
Just if you ever wonder
Hear my cry above the noise of
the rumbling thunder
I feel alone and empty, my pleas
ring out
My heart will stop because once
again it lost out
Turning and turning but nowhere
to turn
A race against time a hopeless
run
Will you be back?
Perhaps forever gone into the
dark?
No backwards glance, losing out
Gone are the coy smiles and
virgin pout
Neither beam nor ray from the sun
Burnt out after the meaningless
run
Mood: Sad and Desolate
