To you I'd give my blackened heart
If you could make it new
I'd give up all eternity
For one moment of love true
But so many days I've wandered
In lonliness and despair
The darkness that surrounds me
Leaving only disrepair
I've dreamed of love and beauty
Longing for another soul
Whose smile and loving touch
We're enough to make me whole
For millennia I've travelled
Still the end is not in sight
Will I find what I desire most
Will I ever see your light
Author's Notes/Comments:
Written in 2007... this was written when husband number 3 left me... I believed we were soul mates and nothing could ever come between us... I was wrong... I'd spent 8 years married to him, shut away from the world, essentially part of his little cult, so when he left me I was devastated. I didn't know how to function in society anymore and did everything I could to try and fix things... and when that failed I believed I was cursed to be eternally alone... took me 7 years and another failed marriage to get past that...
