wasting in bitter agony I set.
burden by your desolate depression.
your grieving hardship I bare,
languishing in your melancholy state.
I morn your loss of lavishing love.
in remorse the tears you bare
run into years of mine.
let us share our ecstasy, again.
enchant me with your simple smile.
intoxicate me with kind caring words.
I await in these ten years of silence
finding empty nothingness of this broken spirit.
is this love or shall I let you slip away?
are we beyond repair?
put out the beastly flame!
love me, again, so I can feel

I loved the word choice. Though I do think that pieces of this would sound better if they were tweaked a little bit.
Thank you for entering ♥
