The first time
I died
The second time
I criedThe difference?
There's not one
Because the damage
Can't be undoneThe first time
I loved
The second time
I lovedThe difference?
There's not one;
both times
I lost one.Hope is not lost
But I definitely am
So don't look for me
Where light turns to sandOnly one difference thrives
In my cold scourn hands,
And that the first time
Was the last time
I should have
ever loved again.
