A Never-ending Love

I finally found my love

When the sun was at its height,

She was an angel fallen from heaven

Love at first sight.

 

I met her as the clock struck twelve

And the stars glimmered as they shone,

We were alone together

All other life had gone.

 

She had eyes of deep pure sapphire

And hair as black as night,

She was a gift from above

Love at first sight.

 

I now believe in love

It’s an unbreakable link,

Only death can break it

And more love as well I think.

 

I must have had a lot of love

As my heart now has its master,

Because every time I saw her

It beat a little faster.

 

Although our parents disagreed

We married and we kissed,

We were inseparable

Not a second together was missed.

 

But one tragic day

A curse from above,

I gazed at my darling

And had to much love.

 

They took me to the hospital

To try and fix the curse,

But I dearly missed my sweetheart

That just made it worse.

 

I missed her eyes of sapphire

Her hair as black as night,

The feel of her lips

Our love at first sight.

 

Another whole day past

Spent in agony,

Then a doctor came to tell me

I had a heart disease.

 

I was to leave on a plane

To a place far away,

Where one donated heart

Would make this go away.

 

But before I was to leave

I begged to say goodbye,

I told my love it would be okay

But that might have been a lie.

 

She was silent at the airport

And she didn’t even wave,

Our love would never be the same

As in the memories we saved.

 

They took me to a ward

Or it may have been a cell,

I would not have noticed

I was in to much pain to tell.

 

I then had an operation

Which drained some love away,

They gave me a new heart

And then let me go the next day.

 

When I returned to our flat

My love was not there,

I searched in every place we used to go

But she was not anywhere.

 

I went to see her mother

As I thought that would be smart,

I asked her where my love was

She said: “Don’t you know who donated that heart?”

 

How I’ll miss my love

And her sapphire eyes,

The feel of her lips

I really did tell a lie.

 

So take my advice

Don’t take too much love,

It really is a drug

A curse from high above.
