conquers all

I stood at hells gate
right there in the flames
and watched you burn.




I had searched you out in
the hell that you made for yourself,
till finally I did see,

you there in the flames,
playing so happily.

I watched the devil
as he did play
and with you have his way.

I did not fight him
for you did invite him,
but I did not want to lose you.

I called out your name,
and reached for your hand,
time and again and again,

endlessly, for ever and a day.

Forever has come, and it has gone,
and past also is that day.

I could not get you
to come back to me,

poisoned, as your mind now be,

so to maintain my sanity,
I had to leave you there,
behind.

They say that true love
conquers all, 
and I know that mine
was true,




but it doesn’t mean a thing,
if yours wasn’t too. 

So I guess what they say
is really just a lie,

without the love of two,
even true love will die,

and

no thing shall be conquered.
