What happened to our love

Here I am before you, kneeling on my knees
my soul, naked, for the world to see
My blood-red tears stain the ground
and my heart can not be found
I destroyed our love, our child, our hope
with this pain I can not cope
I do not want to look into your eyes
nor live in lies
here I beg you please
to leave me on my knees
i can not comfort you
there's nothing I can do
to make this right
so please don't fight
for me
I still love you, that will always be
but to look into your eyes
would hurt much more than you can surmise
to hear your loving words
cut across my flesh like swords
please please leave me here
and never near
I love you too much to hurt you again
so I live with my sin
Alone

Penned by my hand on the 22nd of Midsummer, in the year 100 MA.
