Among the Dead

Lying among the dead in ominous graves,
Staring up at the sky remembering the days,
When we were together and nothing in life,
Could take away this love or cause us to strife.
We swore to be together for all of our days,
But neither could see that in so many ways,
The stars were against us and our fate
Would cause us such heartache or so much hate.
The words that you said in my heart still stay,
The things that we did in my mind still play.
The love that we shared had dwindled and died,
Could not be rekindled no matter how hard we tried.
To the pre-set orders of life we were slaves,
And in this graveyard my body now lies.
