Forever My Love, She'll Be

I saw her first, embroidered in white
My heart in awe from such a sight
I longed for such a beauty so free
Forever my love, she'll be

Falling for this gentle, pure dove
I willingly cast out my love
And all shall fill with awe to see
Forever my love, she'll be

Young and rich, with plenty to give
Beckoned to me, now she lives
Happiness has come to me
Forever my love, she'll be

Blindly I thought she'll leave me never
And neglect was the cause of sever
For woe has come, forsaking me
Forever my love, she'll be

Finding her in that man's arms
I had wished them both great harm
But I never again will plea,
Forever my love, she'll be

Wrought with pain, thine mourning dove
What monster has become my love
From guilt I will set her free
Forever my love, she'll be

Blunt to bone, blade to blood
Unto my hands the crimsons flood
None grew more cold than she
Forever my love, she'll be

Buried beneath earth's garden meadows
Swinging from rope, my voice echoes
Never again mine eyes will see
Forever my love, she'll be

Left to dwell in my own sty
Drifting through the rotting house I'll cry
Ghostly moans appear from me
Forever my love, she'll be
