Song/Poem of the Day — Ancient

Ancient

From a distant past you showed up Of the early days when I was young, naïve it seems Taken advantaged of my innocence and good looks Ancient are those days of simple love Loveless now it seems

Primal fear I felt when you left me Consumed by such deceit Trickery of the heart you were Leaving nothing but treachery behind Ancient are those feelings mislead

Ancient is that broken heart Unable to breath in such duplicity I was but a young lover, in bloom before you Such a sham almost carried me away in shame Ancient are those pains of my soul, my darkest days

Oh how I loved you, that I remember So long ago, my ancient heart still clings to love I never forgot, my love was real I gave it to another Your ancient love gave me honesty in my life

The honour of my life took away my shame Funny, I still have love for you Ancient is my heart for a life once lived You no longer resemble those days, here before me Your heart has changed

Ancient are our memories of places we’ve been However we loved, what we thought was love I loved once, I was able to love twice Makes me lucky Ancient tears watched away Can I kiss you hello
