Love, An Eternal Dismay

by DMG

Time, alone you live so much
Yet you share little with me
No love is left in your touch
My heart has been left empty

All I asked was for one second
For one second more to share
But no, this was not reckoned
Now my heart has been left bare

Time had given me emotion
That of love and of desire
Time has taken my devotion
That of keeping a lit fire

So as the flame burns low
As the clock ticks on and on
As the light dims its glow
Like our time, my love is gone

So to you and love goodbye
Happiness will make its way
Time has stricken my heart dry
Love, an eternal dismay
