Love in the Dark

We make love in the dark

no one can explain

what first was romantic

hides regret and pain

Tears and sorrow

 all that is left

in place of lost passion,

I’ve lost myself

The ardor is fleeting

house vacant inside

I hate to admit this

there’s no place to hide

I want to be happy

indeed, don’t we all

but change is so scary

I could stumble and fall

Now he is awaiting

just offer my hand

my love will then take it

and…we shall begin
