Lost

A love long forged with fire and passion

Against the word together in rebel fashion

Desert, mountain, swamp, and lake

Through the cosmos we made our wake

From a higher power pulled apart

Two struggled to make a new start

Voices raised, tempers red, on attack

Angry words said that can’t be taken back

A peace is reached, hearts still ache

In two beds they lay awake

A desperate hope for that love to return

Soon that love is spurned

In the marital bed another love is found

Forgotten vows to what souls were bound

Ultimate betrayal of highest order

A house of tension in complete disorder

In the aftermath leaves endless scars

Some left unseen, other visible from Mars

A fractured family torn asunder

Two souls now millions for Satan’s plunder
