The Unfullfilled Prophecy

I was searching for the prophecy
Seeking the prophecised
Not looking at the real
Searching for the perfect deal

Of course you weren't "Him"
Building you up to meet my expectations
Looking for the missing half
To slot into the whole

Time was our undoing
Revelations, situations, consternation
Ticking like a bomb under our feet
The destiny we had to meet

Gentle Love given freely
Care and compassion
Lust and fire and passion
Now forsaken deserted rations

Your lust turned sour
Like spoiled wine
Your self indulgence
Your killing time

Nothing remains now
But memories in the ether
Time elapsed
Love collapsed

I was searching for the prophecy
Seeking the prophecised
Not looking at the real
Searching for the perfect deal.
