You deny it, you can't accept

It hurts too much to be true

Maybe it's just a nightmare

How could it have happened to you?

'Please, tell me it didn't happen

Tell me this is all a bad dream.'

You beg from the depths of despair

Hoping it's just fate's scheme

But there is no denying

Angry tears roll down your face

Why you, what have you done?

'I did not deserve this disgrace!'

You recoil in bed, quiet and hurt

Seeking alleviation in sleep

Being awake is excruciating

In slumbery dreams, you weep.

Darkness takes you in her arms

It's that scream you can't shout

The aching lump in your throat

An aching spirit torn by doubt.

Your shy eyes open slowly

The pale light floods your mind

Take a deep breath, let it all out

Is there an explanation of any kind?

The abrupt loss echoes within

Take your hands to your heart

Unfathomable mysteries of life

The web spins and we do our part.
