Love looks on

Love will remember

All the vows

All the promises

Amidst torn walls and broken paper

Withered flowers lay encircling

Like an explosion of heartfelt cruelty

Lovers lay bleeding in shreds of dignity

Of forbidden acts committed by sane minds

Left amidst the ill, the sickened

The house of cards is blown away

Laying bare the souls of the innocent

For the world to judge

For the world to dispel

For them to fill with wisps of cold smoke

Humourless fantasies alluding to lost dreams

Love looks on

Love will remember

All the vows broken

All the promises denied

Which lovers upheld

But the world termed lies
