Lost. Lost in this abyss

Of fallen dreams

And lost hopes

Never to be reached

Falling. Falling through this sea

Of my darkest fears.

I flail my arms to no avail.

I am caught.

Caught. Caught in your eyes

More dangerous than any abyss

They hold me tighter and

Pull me down faster than any wave.

Hope. Hope that I wouldn't stumble.

That I’d keep from falling

Deeper and deeper

Under your sublime spell

Love. Love was a game to you.

You made me a pawn,

Dictated my moves.

I was never free

Don't. Don't lie and

Say you love me.

I know I was just a stepping stone

To bigger and better things

Now. Now you're gone

And I'm in pieces

And you're not here

To put me back together again.
