When love is absent there are no clues

No compromises no bodies to use

Lost somewhere on this planet of blue

Where isolation in imminent and survivors are few,

In its absence there are no colors in the sky

No use in asking God why

Only the lonely sigh

No compensations you can buy,

In the absence of love

The erratic flight of a dove

Not what the utopia is supposed to be made of

No princess to fit you like a glove,

Absence of love like Satan’s tools

Wreaking havoc upon sentimental fools

Like a load of fake jewels

The prospect of a deadly duel,

You robbed the light from dawn

And this loneliness lived on

You stole dancing spirits from the lawn

You swept the streets of dwellers in Avalon,

The absence of love unusual and cruel

Leaving expressions indifferent and cool

Leaving this man wondering if there will be renewal

Didn’t know love could be this brutal.
