A Verse in Mind...

I play a song
I play a song for thee
For all the times
You never stopped loving me
In my mind and in my heart
Constantly do I rip apart
The ocean and the sea

Sail alone in a cast
Sail alone in a cast free
All the laughs
It was never meant to be
The broken do not sing
For the phone never does ring
No never once for me

Drop the iron hot
Drop the iron hot quick
So much burnt
A love of true never does trick
A thorned rose will always scratch
As the price of a perfect match
Oh good luck never does stick

Watch the time swim by
Watch the time swim by the sky
A constant left to tick
Before you blink it has left
Leaving with a feel for theft
Time never says goodbye

A love has been lost
A love has been lost indeed
Sadistic hearts do not pound
Unless the bargain is freed
Watch through smarted eyes
A tear dropping from the skies
One last and solitary plead
