Love Like Ours
There is not another love like ours
Our love was birthed by the stars
Crafted with care by the universe’s hands
It embedded our love within all our scars

The light that is you
Shines brighter than the sun
Hotter than an asteroid
‘Tis where our love begun

We started as friends
Turned to lovers
Turned to strangers
Now estranged

I became Ophelia when the bond was broken
When the universe disregarded my wishes
Persephone’s wrath became my own
As I watched everything I dreamed drift away from my grasp

I could never love another
Your star burns much brighter than others
Planning to spend life with each other
Bearing children, us their mothers

So as I watch my love love another
My star begins to dim, for its birth coming to and end
Crafted with care by the universe’s hands
I let my love leave, down the river it trickles, down the bend

My heart eternity aches
My mind a slumber
For I could never truly
Love another
