Love Eulogy

Love Eulogy She: My soul is withered love, its lost its way! Oh it did not know dear, you would betray! Tears are flowing down my cheeks, they slide down deep into my heart where they abide. I am drowning, have you got it honey, that very tiny breath-life real piece of me? Give it back! I'm dying, can't you see? You've got the piece I need, come and heal me. Keep who you are love, grow in every way, but along that trodden road, please stop here today. He: Dear! Look! See what I have, a treasure to keep, A treasure for which I know you do weep. It does not belong to me any more, I must return it now to you, with tears encrust. I wrapped it in our past covered it with glory, For I also cannot bear this sad story. But rather your heart begin to beat now again And bear open your soul so it can mend. She: This piece dear that belongs to me, you kept too long, the pain intense a grave offense! I catch my breath, but it falters, and dies, For without your heart, my spirit cries. Oh God how did this come to be that you have stolen so much from me! Oh what to do? All else know the answer, there's plenty to spare, You will find the fragment, your heart repair. Mourners: Let him keep that rare piece of you, and regret that having met, he's in your debt. For he can never return such beauty so pure but for you there's ever so much more... We miss your lilting zest for life, we will wipe your tears, hold your hand, be there until your smile tells us you're back, your eyes glisten, your lips speak the soft words, to which we will listen. She: Oh you ask so much of me dear friends! I know your faith is the gift you have to bestow. I take it along with the love you have shared and the pain I know you wished I had been spared. Take my hand, help me up from this grave rise! In him the well of tears will never arise. You all know how my heart cannot come to conceive what you and my head tells me, I must believe. Damn him, damn him, this ogre! What can be worse, An untrusting cruel lover, A bane, a curse! Mourners: Here we are,many hands held out to you take hold, and dont let go, they are your cue that spirit can only die when you cannot see what you have and what we can give to thee. But you must reach out to us, grab a firm hold, take back your life, your heart, vibrant and bold. She: My good friends, take a look, unsteady and pale I hold your hands and know I will not fail. Thank you all for your love, your trust, your aid. A path back to my full life, you have all laid. No need to say goodbye to cruel him.. Let my life with returned joy hope, faith, and vim.. continue without falter. I live to do a celebration, a journey I always knew. Him: Don't you see, here I must be? Don't you know that in life, here i stay, I cannot go! I must believe you are in that heart-pain grave, that you are less than me, who is so strong and brave. For I cannot live and know your truth and care. I have lost what few men have been allowed to share. A soul,a heart dedicated, loving especially this strong passionate personality.. Fie on thee, to give me something so rare! I know nothing to which you can compare. If I cry for you, I will not ever stop, I will Run to your heart, your soul, I love you still. Goodbye dream, come nightmare! I name it you I revile, so I can live it's all I can do. She: Memories I cannot keep, I can forgive, and in doing so, I understand, I grow I live.
