I loved you like the darkness loves one,
Hiding your scars and faults from the word.
I kissed you like the moon kisses the soul,
Passionately, softly, intensely.
I held you like the night air holds a young girl,
Gently, teasing your hair between my fingers.

I loved you like the cat loves its mice,
Devouring your soul, leaving you dead inside.
I kissed you like the sun kisses the skin,
Burning you until there is nothing left but pain.
I held you like the ocean waves holds a raft,
Pulling you under, drowing you harshly.

Love turns to loss and tears fade away,
When what was had is gone and there's nothing left to say.
A shattered heart can be mended in gold,
But two broken people will always unfold.
To what I owe you, with this light kiss good-bye,
All good things shall crumble in the hands of Time.
