Love’s Last Note

You say you love me, but I know you don’t
Nothing would stop you if one you desire
Pretend that you will, but I know you won’t
Sweet nothings come easy, but have no fire.
When I saw you it was an echo from before
Briefly, I was entangled, under your spell
Echoes will fade ’til you hear them no more
So in the end love’s last note is its death knell.
Speak no more of what was or could’ve been
All that talk is but ash and sand in the past
No longer will you tease me with dark sin
What has been neglected finally dies at last.
