The highs are oh so marvelous,
But the lows, they tear your soul,
The second that you lost,
You knew you'd never be whole.
A moment lost in time,
But frozen in your mind,
The two that said forever,
Left that world behind.
Her heart still beats for him,
But nothing good can come,
From the chaos they've created,
The creatures they've become.
She cannot stand the mirror,
A reflective crown of thorns,
Eyes once full of promise,
So empty as she mourns.
In younger days, she'd always pray,
That love would find its way,
She never once thought to ask,
If it would come to stay.
She gave her heart and came to learn,
There is no guarantee,
You roll the dice and take a chance,
And hope it comes to be.
Spirit tired, faith expired,
She wants for love no more,
She just prays that she will make it,
Not drown before the shore.
