I once was loved
I felt it deep.
I once was known
Oh, it was sweet.
I once had passion
It filled my soul.
But then I felt it go
It happened but it was slow.
I slipped into my sweet depression
Felt myself overcome with dreadful emotion.
I felt like I was drowning
Even though I was breathing.
I felt like I was dying
Even though I was living.
I began bleeding
My soul sweetly draining.
And in the hours I was alone
Solidarity became a welcome home.
I savoured each dreadful emotion
Seeping in my sweet depression.
Filling my soul
Taking my passion.
Oh, it was sweet
To be known
I felt it deep
And I began to love it.
