Never To Be


A cold and heavy dread have I
It settled in my chest you see
It's sadness for the very thought
That I have lost my destiny

I felt it in my fingertips

These digits could not hold
Your love that I so want to keep
More valuble than gold

These eyes could see it slip away

So helpless did I feel
It's nothing that could be replaced
My acheing heart will never heal

It is the sadness and forbodeing

To mourn the loss forever
And vow a silent promise too
That I'll forget you never
