Pray you suffer not the death of love.
"I love you no more" are words you should fear.
I hope it is a thing you learn not of.
Your heart breaks again with each unshed tear.

"I love you no more" are words you should fear.
Words sink in your soul and tear it apart.
Your heart breaks again with each unshed tear.
Love should be avoided right from the start.

Words sink in your soul and tear it apart.
Your soul embraces winter's bitter cold.
Love should be avoided right from the start.
Love is the cruelest of lies, truth be told.

Your soul embraces winter's bitter cold.
Lock away your heart to avoid love's spell.
Love is the cruelest of lies, truth be told.
The death of love is a true living Hell.

Lock away your heart to avoid love's spell.
Words of romance are ashes on the tongue.
The death of love is a true living Hell.
If you must, suffer love while you are young.

Words of romance are ashes on the tongue.
I hope it is a thing you learn not of.
If you must, suffer love while you are young.
Pray you suffer not the death of love.

This is a pain like no other ... and your verse has done it justice.

Pray these words never haunt your heart again.

Ah DE, indeed you look into the soul of my loved one, and suffer for her, as do I.

You have read my diatribe on her situation - it has worsened, and she has indeed, suffered the death of love.

I've also suffered this many times. That's why I don't believe in love anymore. You've done a good job on this one..lots of emotion within the form... I like that.

You know, Dream - there's a simple phrase I've adopted:
'Love like you've never been hurt before'
Keep that heart of yours open, my friend. Liked your work of course.

Truly suffered it only once... second time around I managed to keep it.

I will say this... you've got real emotion poured into this one, that's not to say your other offerings are lacking in such, because they never do... I guess what I'm saying is that I can really feel the pain in this one and I'm sorry you've been made to suffer so. All the same, thanks for sharing your talent... I bow to you and yours.

This reposting suited the mood of several of those I hold dear. I believe it well explains it's particular pain.
