The Cost For True Love

In the depths of despair He sought solace in a deal A desperate man longing for love That felt so real He made a pact with shadows A contract so cold Yet thought to himself There's nothing else that he could lose Blinded by desire He walked a path of regret Unaware of the torment that lay ahead Deceived by false promises A cruel trick it played His heartache longing Forever to pervade A bitter curse he bears In eternal night No sunlight to guide him No hope in sight He gave up his sight The window to his soul Not a simple cost To make his heart whole It was a trap A twisted game of fate He gave up his sight And darkness became his state No glimpse of their future No visions to hold The faces of his children Forever unseen His heart weeps As he longs for a glimpse Of the smiles and laughter That his blindness eclipsed The echoes of his children's voices Haunt his mind A cruel reminder of the sight He left behind He gave up his sight The window to his soul Not a simple cost To make his heart whole It was a trap A twisted game of fate He gave up his sight And darkness became his state No glimpse of their future No visions to hold The faces of his children Forever unseen It was a trap A twisted game of fate He gave up his sight And darkness became his state No glimpse of their future No visions to hold The faces of his children Forever unseen
