A Double-Edged Love

I've given up the hope of love,
In my sacred solitude of loneliness,

She is the one so beloved,
That saves me from the listless,

Those loveless eyes burn my heart,
And leaves me on the razors edge,

My heart weeps from our distance apart,
And loves forgotten pledge,

Break this bittersweet spell on me,
That keeps me begging for the pain,

But begging for it so helplessly,
Because it is all that keeps me sane,

Bless me with the sweetest gift,
Rip my heart from heartbreaks claws,

But your love also the sweetest gift,
Without it i'd have no love at all....
