Gone To Hell

I have been there with you,

At your side in your descent;

All you wanted I gave,

Going ever further down,

And I have wept for it.

Why should I cry, why care -

The sorrow taking me

In it's arms - a lover

To take me away from you.

"Betray him," said sorrow.

"Leave him to his descent

To hell, let him lose and lose.

Love will never change this -

Though what you sought is there

Within him - it is lost."

Those around me repeat

The awful refrain; "It is lost!"

And I have wept for it.

I had offered my blood

And my tears to save you.

Would you have me join you,

Going down the road to hell -

Would you have me lose all

I have, as you have lost - yet

You laugh in the nightmare.

I remain in the land

Of the living as you go

Down the road all alone.

I weep in painful anger

For your descent to hell.
