Praying For The Return Of Pleasure

when love is gone
to another island
crossing the sea
i pray for pleasure
i light a candle
and offer the flowers
for the grand icon

the winds are strong
there is storm coming
and love may not return

the icon smiles
for the truth is
when love is gone
it is gone
and there is no promise
that it will return

in the eye of the storm
love sinks and cannot come back
anymore

there are no reasons
for separations
when love is broken and
beyond repair.
