Remedy

A sickness set inside the soul,
This love that will not die,
I thought you were the remedy,
You were just the lie.

The sweet charade I used to hide,
All I held within,
The soft escape that came along,
When lonely did set in.

I can't get through a single day,
Without wishing he were here,
Instead of you my wilted flower,
My lover, I need near.

The one who holds my everything,
Body, mind and soul,
The one I lost to misery,
The one who makes me whole.
