The Weight Of Love.

Green eyes of forests, of moss and trees

Freckles, each from an angels lips

How young you were, free of sin

Until that fateful day the flames broke free.

Blue eyes of oceans, sky and tears,

Your angel wings turned black from your own will

You fell from heaven, transformed

You dug your path, you met your love.

The day you parted you broke down in tears

The blood on your sleeve dripped like memories of when you first met,

When the dagger pierced his heart, that heaven-sent protector

Who fell from your corrupted touch

When in Hell you tortured, you saw the dark

He saw the world in your soul, as he dragged you back up

He's the light that made your days brighter

The partner you needed in days of hunger

Now he's gone in the empty

The void holds his soul

He's sleeping now, forever alone

In solitude he dreams of that fateful day

When he gripped you tight and fell from the weight.

The weight of love, as lovers say.
