Once a Companion of my Soul
(c) Uootem 2002 (Triolet)
Emptiness prevails in this world I find myself
for true love is now a stranger to my soul
faith crushed by subliminal noise of reality
emptiness prevails in this world I find myself
only light with no promise casts a haunting shadow
promise of love, loyalty and faith have no finality
emptiness prevails in this world I find myself
yet I still hear the faint sounds of distant drumming
for love was once a companion of my soul.
Memories from shadows darker than night
remind me of a love that brought all I require
and for a moment I forget the pain of reality
memories from shadows darker than night
warmed by the constant heat of that faithful fire
fire from inside the souls of eyes that could see
memories from shadows darker than night
once our past is gone, our future should be coming
for love was once a companion of my soul.
Your lips once whispered such sweet warm words
words so much brighter than summer's sunlight
with echoes that remain in today's unrelenting silence
your lips once whispered such sweet warm words
and captured my heart with miraculous delight
a heart that has found no belief in anything since
your lips once whispered such sweet warm words
as we pranced near mystical fire to the rhythms of chanting
for love was once a companion of my soul.
