A Heart Once Slain

As I lay here dying
I can hear them crying
Over the life that
Was once so great
Now, nothing but ashes remain
A heart once slain
In a moment of passion
That is all it took
To take this life
With that simple cutting knife
Now, nothing but ashes remain
A heart once slain
The tears fall like rain
Softly kissing cold skin
As the wind softly blows
Away my forgotten soul
Now, nothing but ashes remain
A heart once slain
All I can here is your name
My long forgotten flame
He who said he loved me
Now grins with cruel desire
Now, nothing but ashes remain
A heart once slain
