Forlorn Rapture

You hold her thinking your out of sight.
You little secret cannot be kept;
For I am in shadows watching light.
I see your happiness, it sickens me.

A simple hug breaks my heart,
It cuts me deep in the chest.
For pain is a wonderful art,
That seems to make amends.

You love her so, it's in your eyes,
You have found your joy,
But at a cost, another's dies.
Don't be worried or ashamed,
Of your heart's decision.
The culprit here has been framed,
The one in shadows is at a fault.
Thinking to be loved, when amidst darkness,
Lapsed by herself alone.
All she does is seem to depress,
All those who get in her grasp.

A tear is shed, weeping starts after.
Bloodshot eyes still watch only to see,
The happiness, the purity and laughter,
Which has been denied from me.
