An Enslaved Love

Dreams, drifting, deepened and watered,
Lonesome, sunken and so battered,
Cast away like dead mans corpse,
Shipwrecked on life's long mysterious course,
Crying, raging from the soul within,
For a love lost, crushed and aching.

Clinging to a life that knows no care,
I'm sinking beneath a million tears,
Captured, enslaved and compelled by a love
That only your heart can free me of
A love that's saddened and filled with fear,
To be enriched by your loves sweet tear.
