The Lake of Lost Love

[ɪɴꜰɪɴᴀ-ᴘʜᴏᴇɴɪx]

We’ve only so much time. I wish you could be mine, evermore… Maybe there’s nowhere to explore. I was made for you, and you were made for me. Simply, you and me were meant to be. See me as I dance with you in the sea, scenes that were once left unseen. Believe.

Soon it will just be us two. Too many tunes to lose, yet I know they’re overdue. Blue hues move through the moon, but all I view is you.

Hear me here, for someday my voice might not be near. My dear, steer clear of the tears, for they are mere days compared to our years. Let them vanish and disappear like mere peers in the crowded piers.

I was made for you, and you were made for me. We need to be, I want to be yours for eternity. Never leave, just believe me when I speak your name by the sea. Infinity is where I want us to flee, for I just want to leave our purgatory. Dream with me by the sea as I recite my stories.

Stay by my side as I lie in the night, and fly into the sky. Just you and I rising high into the bright light, letting it ignite blind eyes and bind our minds in sight. Time might hide the truth from our flight, but wherever we go tonight, I know it’ll be paradise as long as it’s just you and I.

Lost in the dark, we embark in the sky we claim as ours. Lost in the stars.

It’s all been heard before, but now I mean it more. Soar off of the floor and reach the eye of the storm, take form in the war torn land to bring peace once more. It is you I’d do anything for, and it’s only you that I adore. Leave behind the blizzard’s core and reach the warmth beyond. This story of ours will go on and on.

The blurring days stray from my lane, and I drift away from the sane. Towards your name I sway, drawn towards the same pain. I deserve to feel this way, so why should I stay out of the blaze? I don’t want this fate, but I know I deserve to be trapped in this cage. Rage against the rays of joy’s gaze.

…

The flames of blame scorch my frame, and I wait through the pain. My fears and hate cast a nightmare parade upon the streets of my membrane, setting the buildings ablaze as the citizens run away. Maybe I’m crazy, and my hazy memories are invading my veins, see? A cybernetic train makes its way through the city of ads and vain. Acid rain and storms came, and soon the lakes fell into disarray.

…

Etched into stone, your name echoes and bellows in the land below. Knowing what I know, I can’t afford to let you go. I’m so scared of being on my own, without another soul to soothe my sorrow. I know they won’t, nobody wants to fix a waste of bones. Nobody would care if I broke and shattered into a million lone pieces of woe, nobody wants to sew a torn man woven by threads prone to taking tolls from evil roles.

…

I’m alone.
