Without You

About love that transcends time...

Ours is a love affair of a thousand years;

From your hand sprung the greatest empires

Brought to its knees by your vision,

You lost sight of your enemies

In the shadows of your love for me.

 

The blood of a king should not touch the earth

Yet I cut myself and watched you bleed,

Trapped in the confines of ash and time

Our love is rendered a sin.

 

So we atone through the passage of our lifetimes

Till there is nothing left of us or our love.
