Love is a siren song
to dash your dreams upon
Splintered into smithereens
Upon the uncaring rocks
Melodic laughter for such foolish hopes
Ripped away upon violent winds
The reef tears at your skin
Lashed by waves that pull you down
Into the black depth of despair
Cut and bleeding hoping for death
But one is not left to die
But to survive
For love will not let you abide
In the realm of happiness
It calls you back again
And drags you back to the pain
For the emptiness of life
Demands an even higher price
That necessitates trying again
Even if it is in vain
