The Saddest Wish
Crushed at the sight of this disgraceful love
My heart is a prison of affection
Hoping that it would be set free
Wishing to look away from this wrongful right
Of a love that was never meant to be
The constant bruising at the sight of this ludicrous affection
The constant squeezing of the wish that was never granted
So long ago
It beats still
but with each beat the pain grows stronger
the bruises are larger
but the squeezing is still constant
A burning flame of hate will engulf and harden my heart
So it may endure this pain anymore
Becoming desolate and alone
A lone wolf of the mind
The endless crushing of my heart
Will be its own dreadful fate
Forgetting may be long
But it will be the most painful days
That anyone will ever endure
And all for the saddest dying wish
Hoping that it would be set free
Wishing to look away from this wrongful right
Of a love that was never meant to be
The constant bruising at the sight of this ludicrous affection
The constant squeezing of the wish that was never granted
So long ago
It beats still
but with each beat the pain grows stronger
the bruises are larger
but the squeezing is still constant
A burning flame of hate will engulf and harden my heart
So it may endure this pain anymore
Becoming desolate and alone
A lone wolf of the mind
The endless crushing of my heart
Will be its own dreadful fate
Forgetting may be long
But it will be the most painful days
That anyone will ever endure
And all for the saddest dying wish
