DARK LOVE SONG (The Mother's Sorrow) The silken threads, they wound around me Caught me up with their gentle glow Persistent, winding ever so slowly The web of our love, it spins and grows I could not escape, you caught me in fear And I could not fight, I could not resist, You pulled the strands to draw me so near All I knew was I must have your kiss The hunter was trapped, and became the prey You beat me, you had me, won all of my games Your burning eyes would not look away The hunted forced the hunter to grow tame So I reached to you, for I was lost in the dark I didn't know I was fragile 'till you came When did it happen, that I lost my heart? But did you, oh did you ever feel the same? You alone had trapped me, had tamed this beast But you closed your eyes, cut these threads Could you not have returned my heart at least? You slowly destroyed me, with words left unsaid I could not resist the things we did do But her dark eyes and weathered skin Reminded me so much of you Love forsaken, returned again And vanished, promptly, from memory of pain The barren earth about me could not nurture the seed I had so much to lose, and so little to gain Forgive me, my little one, born of our need!
