Sacrifice

June 24th, 2006


  

Why is tonight so different? Why did my tears run dry?

One week ago we were talking how you need to change

Now you seek a new path & ways to straighten up your life

I feel that could be the end of it or as one of us will die


You know our love is in jeopardy

Yet, again I need to make a sacrifice

I embrace myself in silence

And then I try to give you advice


You speak of ethics, family & religion

You speak. And in so much pain I just listen

I hear my conscious calling

But my poor heart is to pay the price


You speak of a wakeup call & how God kept you alive

Then you ask me to pray & to follow the light

How can I pray to whom is to take you from my side?

What light am I to follow as after you leave I’ll go blind?


You wish we could be just friends; you & I

You wish… but how to myself can I lie?

How can I be just friends to whom I lust & desire?

How can I be friends when my heart is set on fire?


Oh I wish you the best, but for me my best has just left

And all what remained is your empty pillow I hug & wet

Go ahead with your life but don’t look back

I’ll keep an eye on you for the other will just cry


Oh my God forgive her, you I beg

I may not; I’ll continue to love her instead

Take her to heaven once she dies, but in my turn

Just let me have a look into her eyes


That would be worth it, no regrets

Another sacrifice, yet one more sin

Then take me to my fate that is I know

As of tonight I’m in eternal hell..!
