Sudden Onslaught (remembering the way)

 

Sudden Onslaught

(remembering the way)

The window cracked

To let in the chill,

I hear the melody

Of  falling rain........

Listening intently,

Remembering the way

We loved on nights like this

Before the bliss was plundered by the pain

Do you remember? The way it used to be?

Loving each other, your heart on mine

Fickering flames in our hungry eyes

And your hand upon my hair?

We had so little.......

In that little room

To call our own

But love was living there

But then the destroyers of love 

That you never see coming

Sneering with disdain

Stabbed us in our backs

Love's foundation split open

Like a tree hit by lightning

We fell, torn apart by the sudden onslaught

And watched all our love slip away through the cracks.

(Remember the way?)
