Reaching Happiness, Touching Pain

Dark oceans we cry, writhing in the misery
Cast spit on the love that lay at our feet
The intrigue of pain we crave, it’s mystery
Neglect to explore the depths to sanctity
We reach happiness, divine in providence
Our lamented desires lose scent of the essence
Shunned is the prosperity, we feel the anxiety
Self inserting the knives in our heart
Luring to degrade with bribes of affection
Can’t abide divinity over our imperfection
All love is broken, sombre in devotion
The hearse of selfishness has drove it all away
