I saw you here
Standing like a statue,
Your voice stolen
Like Medusa’s golem
My sympathy is with you
But what can I do
But to watch you fade?.

Your tears were ready.
Like raindrops, they fell,
My heart still seeks solace
In your very arms
Here with you
Are your songs and symphonies
Those I love
I keep close.

From afar
You still steal my heart,
Why can’t I breathe
Why can’t I focus
My sadness grows
Beyond the skies
Like a dark cloud
You’ll always haunt me.

Aphrodite, where are you?

You stand before me
But I couldn’t see
Where did you go
My lover and friend
Just like Solomon
I am your beloved,
So, I ask once again
When do we get to see
The beautiful queen you are.
