Yet I Still Love You

Isn't it strange, for all my affection,            
after your rejection
I suffered dejection
Yet I still love you.

The silence in which I returned back
The burden of pain I did not lack
No matter how, time against me will stack
My suffering in this life's track
Yet I still love you.

I loved waking up next to you,
Now every waking moment is torment because of you,
Time will heal this pain that is true,
Yet I still love you.

If only fate could dispel,
This mourning of lost love, pure hell,
Remembrances of you fondly, I revel
My grief I cannot conceal,
Yet I still love you.

The Aftermath

Rubble and dust, memories and their remnants strewn, like the aftermath of a storm, as it passed with such ravages to scar my body and soul.

We met in the strangest of circumstances, brought together by happenstance in the pursuit of a greater bliss.

Though who you were at the time, I could not have known.
Though who you are now, I wish I didn't.

For the short time that you so graced me with your illusory affections,
I only poured out sincerest devotion,
But alas to no avail.

You will sing your swan song for many and more.
All I want now is to hear you from afar.
