Where You Left Me

Falling is not failing
IT is a saving grace
If I had not descended
How could I know my place?
You are still in the heavens
Blessed by time and space
I see only the darkness
Left  by the absence of your face
It cannot be forgotten
It can never be undone
The story  of our love
Was written in the stars
Our passion was renowned
I felt the earth move and 
Saw the flames leap higher
I wanted to live inside you
I wanted to build a living pyre
But you grew afraid 
Of the heights of bliss
You were so used to the pain
Of your old abyss
That you fell and took me 
Down to the darkest hell
I would not let go of you
I would not break that spell
I turned around to comfort you
You had somehow forsaken me
Broke free of this  misery
I am so delighted for you 
For you and your new love
I saw you both in the paper
Looking so in love they say
Wedding bells?
I hope they bring you joy 
I pray some happiness
Surely it may be
A way to free me
From where you left me
