Sweet Delight

Sweet Delight

You whispered nothing but sweet delight
Everyday and every night
It was always so profound 
With your voice and sound

I loved you with all my heart and will
I don’t know how you had that control and skill
Your very touch made my shiver inside
And the whole world seemed to open wide
You had such an amazing way
Like a soft and delicate breeze along the bay
Everything about you I had to adore
It made me want to come back for more and more

Your very touch made my body freeze and hold
No matter how hot or cold
You were magnificently bold
It was like a fairy tale being told

But something went wrong
I was to weak and you were too strong
The nights seemed to be darker and long
I turned on the light
And you were nowhere in sight
I ran down the street
Hoping to meet
But you were far to gone

You took my heart and soul
I had nothing, not even control
I gave you all that I had all I could trust
Never did I realize for you it was just lust
You never showed an ounce of concern
It was the hard way that I had to learn
You had power and strife
And you allowed it to control your own life
I see now you were so filled with greed
Always in need

Your time will come and you will have shame
But remember, you are the only one to blame
You will be alone, no one will love you
And maybe you’ll realize what you lost and what was true
You are my sweet delight
And sorrow will find you
You can not hide out of sight
For as long as the sky is blue
And the grass is green 
I do not wish to be ill or mean
You have done nothing but cause pain
And I promise you, you will not have glorious gain
My love was pure
But it was more then you could endure

This love has gone, it had to retire
And my sweet delight, you are no longer a desire
