Tantalus
I was a fool to not lose hope,
Should've known there was never a chance
Though no tears fall,
My heart does ache but I shall not weep
Just one more sad good bye,
To a love that I could never have
Fight to the last breath,
Love will prevail,
What a lie
This is no fairy tale
The true world is cruel,
No one cares,
Humans can never love pure
To try is to die, So why not just lie?
Soon it'll be too late for good bye
The truth he'll never know
The truth is for those who care
I cannot die,
I am Tantalus but punished with love
Only with true will love yield its rewards,
But the truth will always conceive pain
I was a fool,
Hestia's hearth provides no warmth
And Nike has abandon me,
Gods cannot help,
Mortals will only die,
So why just say good bye?
It is easy to be slain
But to love, it'll bring too much pain
So one more good bye,
To a love that was never mine
