My body burns, scorched by despair
That overtakes the stagnant air.
I once again can feel the pain
You gave me
That I felt in vain.
While I lament a love that couldn't be
I'm startled by what's left of me.
I've become a skeleton, drowning in my own hate;
Alas,
I tried, but it's too late.
As I leave this place behind,
I'm trying not to lose my mind.
Your love was all I really sought
And
I had it; or so I thought.
So as I leave that prison cell,
My own torture chamber; my forgotten hell
I can see now that my heart's grown dead.
All
That I have is the darkness ahead.
