A Love Story

Long ago,
I fell into the abyss,
but was saved,
A light from above,
A blessing from my love.

How can I ever describe my overpowering feelings towards you?
How can I ever forget those beautiful memories with you?

I was torn apart when I was forced to forget about you,
I was hurt so bad no one could ever imagine.
It felt as though my heart was ripped apart,
Torn into pieces, and consumed by vultures.

The sight of you brings me back to the past,
To when we were once together,
Forbidden but happy.

Now,
We were nothing but strangers
Walking on the same streets,
Lurking in the same corners.

How can I ever put you down?
When I was hoping for the past to repeat itself once more.
I want the past to repeat,
I want you, once again.
