True Love Knows No Ending

True Love Knows No Ending


Remember the time when we read fairy tales, 
Waiting to see a happy ending,
Imagining our lives in the story,
Looking for a way to see the happiness on the other side.

All it took one day for me,
To travel down the path seeking for that feeling,
Success and money were just materialistic things,
But the world only worked for this. 

I worked day and night, 
Just to build a corporation big enough, 
To make the world bend to my wishes,
Poverty did take out the only emotion that I could sacrifice,
Happiness was the thing I sacrificed. 

 You and your love for flowers and the colours, 
Had an impact on this black and white world, 
You were the artist,
Everything else was just a canvas. 

The colour filled room, 
Did make me wonder who created this,
You were here busy with a handful of lilies,
That you forgot I had entered my suite.

From there on it was just a story for the ages, 
You were just a lost traveler,
Seeking for a place to be called home, 
While I was just a disturbed soul seeking solace. 

It was only time that I fell for you, 
I knew that you also felt for me,
Yet something was stopping you,
It was like a cell in which you kept your soul.

The man who owned you,
Mistreated you and made you suffer alone in this world,
Still called himself your husband,
Marking a bull's eye on his back with his skeletons from his past.

Willing to make you suffer,
And drown you in your guilty conscience,
Turned himself in for the crimes that were next to treason,
He knew he was innocent but took the liberty to chain your soul again. 

You ran back into my life,
Asking me to help clear his name,
For whom I was the man who stole you away fro him, 
Your misty eyes were like the piped piper's song and I was just a kid following your tune. 

Searching every corner of the earth,
Only To find the answers in land far away,
A step on a mine was its cost,
It was like a barren land when I paid the price.

Three months later he was out,
Searching for you all over the place,
Only to be haunted by the ghost of his lies and deciet,
Trying to shackle the soul whic I had unshackled.

Attempting to cage the bird that I had freed,
You taking your final journey,
To search for my soul that became your home,
Becoming free from this mortal world.

True love knows no endings,
Neither did ours,
We did meet again,
And this time it was forever.
