You Didn't Return

There is that scarlet red sun
In the distance it sets
Leaving the world in the dark
Just like you left me.

The only difference is I know you won't come back
I know the sun will return
So why didn't you
Why did you leave me stranded in a black existance?

Every night I hoped
I even prayed
But to no avail
You never dipped to kiss my lips again.

I'm at your feet
I have forgiven you
I've given you my heart once again
So what are you so afraid of?

Behind the trees that sun sets
I heed it good-bye
Though it is bitter sweet
For I know, unlike you, it shall return, bright as ever.
