Sweet Love Once Mine
Dawn Grover 1992 (United States)
Sweet love once mine
You are the sun and wind
You are my light amid the dark
You bring me joy and many grins
A perfect potential of hope
For an incomplete future
Yet you are a raging sea
Bringing the stormiest of skies
You are my sun, a hoax
You will be my demise
Can one still love with shattered heart?
You abuse all that love you
Shadows above you bring the eve
And although the sun is of brightest hue
It cannot outshine when stormclouds o’erhang
In truth you are the sun disguised
You bring the winds and rain
