Love Lost

~ A Man Alone ~ I walk along the shore on my isle of dreams My heart pounds and my soul screams seeking the one who brought my soul here Stormy times present themselves in anguish and multiples of fear. Looking attentively for her to appear Seeking the one who placed my heart here She thought I betrayed her so in pain she fled Oh how I fear for the tears she shed. In my own sorrow I utter words unclear Thinking she will leave me as I am here Storms about share nothing with me For the storm within rages like the sea. I envision her auburn hair and lovely green eyes Tearing and flashing as she suffers her cries She was told a lie and her love went cool Alone now without her I remain the fool. Our storm is stronger then it begun Where is her heart so I may run To end this solemn empty solitude ... Her heart's contentment is my food. Her fullness of passion fills my spirit I spoke truth yet her ears did not hear it How must it all have been wrong when she loved and teased me with her song. She is gone! I am alone walking on my isle of dreams. God, I love her so deeply within my heart My Queen of Dreams & I ... should never part. Yes, I am alone on my isle of dreams My heart cries and my soul screams Punished with lies of heated hail Truth was spoken but to no avail. It is stated and I yell it to the sky Too tired discard me so I may die. So stormy she hears not my heart beat ~ Fearing an age disallowing us to meet. ~ Desiring the embrace of consuming love Granted~Enchanted~Blessed from Above But remembering abundant tears I saw from her eyes We loved and lost ... because of someone's lies. A man alone to walk drenched in sorrow Searching for my Queen Maybe ... to find ... tomorrow.

A great concept, well developed. One question though; the first line--is that what you meant to say? "I walk alone the beach" instead of, "I walk on" or "I walk alone, on the beach"? I wasn't sure if this was a typo or artistic licence. Either way, Great work! Keep it up.
