Once There Was a Love
Once there was a love,
Bright like the summer sky,
Dazzling like crystals under the sun's light,
Encompassing like the waves of the sea.
Once there was a love,
A zephyr of loveliness and devotion,
A garden of nature beauties,
A room of precious ornaments.
Once there was a love,
That’s gone with the winds,
Never to come back again,
Since you left my embrace.
Once there was a love,
That stood beside me,
Now I’m lonely and alone,
Wondering where I've gone wrong.
Once there was a love,
The essence of my happiness,
The prop of my right footings,
Now I’m disheveled and despondent.
Once there was a love,
I'd want to come back again,
Walk through my door,
And take its permanent residence.
