FOR THIS WORLD I WOULDN'T SACRIFICE MY SOUL.
NOT FOR ONE OR EVEN AS A WHOLE.
I LOVED ONCE & WAS LEFT IN THE COLD.
I CONFIDED IN BEAUTY & SHE SAID WHOM FLAWS ARE THOSE?
DEEPLY ROAMING NO ANSWER NOR REPLY.
I CAN'T COMPREHEND LOVE YET TO BE DISCOVERED IS I!
IDENTITY HOW IS THAT DEFINED?
I HAVE BEEN LIVING MANY YEARS & DAYS HOWEVER THOSE DECISIONS WERE NOT MINE.
I CAN NOT APPEASE THE WORLD ESPECIALLY, NOT ONE AT A TIME.
MANY SAY I DON'T LOVE BUT I DO IN SPIRIT.
THE HEART BECOMES WEAK ONCE THE SOUL HEARS IT.
LOVE IS THIN IT LIES ON A FRAGILE LINE.
I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD YOU COULD NEVER GET FAR LOOKING BEHIND!
