Cruel Fate

Deep is the sorrow that assails him
Gloom and sadness now reign supreme
Anguish and pain so overwhelming
Such is the hurting within.
Time was when he felt complete
Alone in his world, free-spirited
Not a moment was spent in dreadful misery
Everything was in blissful harmony.
Then he met this girl so fine
Unparalleled beauty had she to shine
None to her could compare but diamond
Indeed, she was God’s perfect creation.
So taken was the man by the vision of her
Close to his heart he held her there
He felt she was the answer true
To all the prayers to heaven he threw.
Inseparable souls they did become
Ecstasy throve and blossomed
It seemed their love was meant to last
Survive it would beyond the dust.
Alas, the hand of fate could not be swayed
Struck it did and none was spared
The maiden did suffer dire
Slowly ebbed in her the fire.
All to himself the man is again
Yet, life has in his soul been drained
For gone is his reason for being—
Without her, what’s the sense in living?
