*Shores of darkness*
They meet by night, yet are met in spite.
Married to others, but not to each other.
Walking along sand, hand in hand.
Dark cold waters at shore, they love even more.
Their love intense, they love with vengence.
Secret loving with desire, as they love with fire.
Knowing they have to return home by morn,
To pretend to love, where love is torn.
She returns again to shores of darkness,
To find her lover missing, cries in weakness.
She calls out his name with all her might,
Her voice with continue echos through the night.
Feelings of love lost, the one she loves the most.
Her mind confused, her heart in fear,
Runs to deepest of waters without him there.
Lets herself go and starts to sinking slow,
She fades to an under world, under the shores
of darkness on her own.

She's faced much darkness in her life,
Hounded by confusion and strife,
Ripped apart by shame's sharp edged blade,
By guilt's
