When Love Isn’t there 

“When love isn’t there… it’s just shadows, just silence.”
“A heart looking for answers…”
Woke up dazed this morning light,
A body of love lying close in sight.
But not my love, someone else’s dream,
Yet here we lay, a perfect scene.
His smile, enchanting, like a god,
A force of greatness, a man of odds.
How strange to be with someone near,
Yet feel no closeness, just empty cheer.
You were special, not special to me,
Made my tears run free, a sight to see.
We were worlds apart, now you’re gone,
And I wonder, baby, what went wrong?
Saw you in a wild, fierce night,
Uncontrolled moves, no end in sight.
Red ran down, your face astray,
What had happened? I lost my way.
You had it all, an empire strong,
Scent of power where you belonged.
And here I was, a spirit free,
Bound by nothing, like the breeze.
You were special, not special to me,
Made my tears run free, a sight to see.
We were worlds apart, now you’re gone,
And I wonder, baby, what went wrong?
If love was lacking, we should’ve let go,
Truth was better than a love we’d never know.
It’s you who lost, you’re gone from here,
But my heart’s left broken, split and seared.
Now I bring flowers, light a flame,
Praying you find peace beyond the pain.
I was honest, I tried to care,
But love was missing, nowhere there.
Just memories now of your wealth and grace,
Your empire’s gold, an empty space.
All that luxury, yet love was gone,
Now you’re not here-rest in peace, move on.
No price to pay, no way to keep,
You’re not here now, rest in peace.
