My Iridescent Lover

You, my lover you!
You have led me through
a life I have never desired.
I drown every day in a river of sorrow,
Love lost and never found again.


I used to wake every morning
mesmerized by your thoughts.
Kept thinking all day, when I’d see your face,
I’d kiss your lips and walk by the beach.


We were so lost in our bubble.
No one else existed but us.
We had our fair share of trouble,
but you never lost sight of me.


You kept changing my name;
cracked voice, you sang a song for me.
Carried my shoes with my tired feet,
I’d depend on you for everything.


Yes, you were my heart, you were my rock
and you put a ring on me.
Goosebumps, by the beach, made promises,
as we kissed each other’s lips.


Now that time has passed,
years gone by and distant.
Yet memories fresh and heart still broken
I see you’ve changed your colour again.


Now you’re crass and now you’re mean.
You’d take any chance to hurt me.
My fragile heart still broken and you
just want to vaporize it…


Keep changing colours;
keep changing love,
My Iridescent lover.
