*Love Only Left Me Alone* Love only left me alone, With a heart now turned to stone, Once fired by passion and desire, Now consigned to flames, in a pyre. Times of laughter and joy we shared, Now mere memories to be cared. The tears shed today seem endless, As my soul sinks into a hollow blankness. The promises we made, now shattered, In this world I roam, now tattered, Torn by the angst of yearning, I see those memories burning. Love only left me alone, To face a world that is unknown, With a heart now cold and numb, And a soul forever undone. ~ Echoes Of Ink
