Is it a destined fate?
Or some yet unknown trait?
I can’t find the answer
What can turn love to hate?

When the once warmth turns cold
And the sadness takes hold
You’re left with only you
You will learn truths untold

If you had more to give,
just maybe you could live
But when there’s nothing left,
you become a captive

You try to hold the light,
with your wavering might
But the darkness you fear,
turns your day into night

So you don your disguise,
under the darkened skies
You carry on each day,
pretending you can rise

You dig your own soul’s grave
While trying to be brave
But deep within you know,
there’s nothing left to save

With each newly met face,
you avoid the embrace,
just to protect yourself,
from your own self disgrace

You can search all you want
But the voices still haunt
A riddle unanswered
Love is merely a taunt
