Hear ye, Hear ye!
Come witness a bleeding soul.

Laugh and mock, my friend,
As my blood gushes, through this distress of love.

Ridicule, deride, and patronize at your discretion and
will,
For even my soulmate doesn't yield an ounce of
benevolence and empathy.

I count the grains of time in the hourglass of my
hopes,
The time I spend in connection, with my love.

Dream not, she tells me, for the funeral of my
adulation and our fusion has dispatched,
Clinch your spine for this, as you know, absence of a
eulogy is in effect, with no tears to shed, and no
requiem to sing.

Cut me deep and not even a drop of blood will shed,
Futile to ponder this absence, as it all drained
through my bloody eyes.

Forgive me world, for my chronic cries and screams,
painting the landscape of my tale,
Even my flesh and blood, my dear brother, doesn't
yield me the familiar glance any longer.

Even my Lord has forsakened my prayers,
As I discover, my love is a sin, He cannot forgive.

Behold, the whole world lies at the tip of my fingers,
The whole world... except my mate, my companion, whom
I may never reach.

All the anguish and trauma aside, there is a stigmata,
etched, upon my weeping heart,
I can drown this Universe in my tears, but the woman I
love, will not ever comprehend my love for her being.

Hear ye, Hear ye!
These are the declarations of a bleeding soul,
My burned, tortured, helpless... bleeding soul.
