Love remains a word to me now

Behind the iron curtain lies a face
dark and hardened after a never ending chase
Was it for the wild destiny or cold blaze
moronic attempts i tried to get out of this maze
sequestered time makes me think how
Love remains a word to me now

Prayers may reach you to the zenith
up there and not getting lost was a misfaith
sound i chose out of millions to near
brought me down to knees with no one to cheer
Abbreviated life made the hardest time bow
Love remains a word to me now

Jaws of truth biting the guileless soul
awakens someone a little late but to witness a hole
a void that may never fill
am dried of my own will
Would there be any light of hope at the brow
Love remains a word to me now

Nefarious games you play with guileless hearts
venerated you not to go through this part
wish life had never met you at the juncture
abused and mentally only i face every torture
if only blessed with the power to change and endow
Love remains a word to me now

Reasons i ask why was the smile feigned
on an ill fated day were tears rained
faces exchanged bitterness and torment
so hapless now and hands full of lament
misnomer and will always pronounce to disallow
Love remains a word to me now....
