Never Again

How can such a Love be so mistreated?

How can holding out my hand be scorned?

I offered my heart and soul to thee,

Why have you decided to destroy me?

Never again will my tears fall for you,

I will not lose hope because of your pain,

I cannot pity a heart so cold and bare,

I weep not for your lack of care.

Never again will I hurt because of you,

I will cease to ache and cry out for truth.

Your bright soul has grown dark and empty

You are the one who will become lonely.

I have a life to live away from scorn and lies,

In a place where my love in passion cries.

I am who I am and I will not change,

The day will come, I will pity your pain!

This is no world for one such as you,

A man so weak, hard-pressed to make it through.

No helping hand to guide your way

Nor a shoulder to cry on those vile days.

I will not weep nor shed another tear,

I relinquish all my hopes and fear.

One day all will come full circle for me,

And in that day I will finally be free.
