Lonesome Love

I lost a love I did not have
I cried with tears I did not own
I prayed to God who loved me not
and in my heart I died alone

I lived a lie I couldn't live without
and cherished every moment I
watched her and followed her home
wishing she didn't have to die

I avenged betrayal she did not inflict
and unrequited vows that were broken
her and her lover suffered together
when they left my heart torn open

I envied his touch that she had accepted
I desired her sex I had dreamed of
I kissed soft lips I did not deserve
I moved into her corpse and filled her with love

I left her body next to his
crying with tears I did not own
I slit the skin I no longer needed
and soaked in my blood I died alone
