Dusk...

Dusk...

Where sunshine was, darkness has begun to rise,
That which was thought a flower, is but a thorn in disguise..
I've never felt such pain, no not once before,
It's not just my heart, its my soul's very "core"...

I've known many a lady, but none such as you,
You loved me dearly, aye; so much as I was due..
We had it all, t'was more than just romance,
Yeah we had it all, till you went up in His arms...

So this is to that 'we', and all that 'we' once shared,
The memories, bad and good; of the life that we once dared...
Since I met you, a different life I've known,
And I'll never forget you, though I'll have to face that all alone...

And if this pain could heal, then only time would tell,
But hard though it is to say, farewell milady, farewell...
