Loves Harvest

This love is like a lustful seed
Placed with envy and with greed
Silently a spirit bleeds
I should have walked away.

Seedling sown in summers heat
Sprouts tangled twisted at my feet
Grown of lies and of deceit
I should have walked away.

Waiting on this love to bloom
Like children from a mothers womb
My every thought
it does consume
I should have walked away.

It covers me from foot to crown
Then it begins to pull me down
I feel it wither turning brown
I should have walked away.

This love that almost touched the sky
Like everything-was doomed to die
For now its time we say goodbye
I turn and walk away.
