*U*ntil you, *U*nfortunately, I\'d never known love,
*N*eglect fit,*N*eedless to say, like a leather glove.
*T*ense and, *T*enebrous thoughts reigned supreme,
*I*llusions of *I*llustrious love haunted each dream.
*L*ight, and *L*aughter weren\'t part of my lifes scheme.
*T*orn and *T*attered was the shape of my heart,
*H*ow I *H*ated my life, each and every last part.
*E*rgo, I *E*ventually hated myself viciously as well,
*R*ank and *R*epulsive to me, moreso even than Hell.
*E*choes of *E*mptiness rang inside of me like a bell.
*W*ith a *W*eeping soul and a beaten down, bleeding spirit,
*A*nger in *A*bundance, I scream, but there\'s nobody to hear it,
*S*oon I *S*olemnly decided my heart would let none near it.
*Y*es, I *Y*elled and cursed, shouting like I\'d gone insane,
*O*r, I\'d *O*stracise myself, inflicting yet even more pain,
*U*ntil I *U*nexpectedly saw there was you, drying all the rain.
