My Sweetest Love
You were the one
the only one
to gaze into my soul
our love so deep
through many years
grew stronger
even through our tears
whatever life would throw our way
together so strong
we swept it away
we loved each other so
But evil slithered in the night
we lay without a care
malevolent ~ malignant
silently growing
slowly strangling
to finally destroy
my sweetest love ~ you had no chance
Even when your heart and soul
took on the challenge
took up the fight
A love so strong
our whole life long
was not enough ~ despite
so when at last the monster won
my life I lived without the Sun
For you my love were dead
how could my life go on
But evil cannot break true love
such love we had goes on and on
until we meet in paradise
your love is deep inside my soul
