Sarah's Song

Your heart must play music, so beautiful you are,

A symphony of creation to rival the sky's stars.

So understand my anguish when you reach my refrain

For your heart's song then causes me naught but pain.

For it is the music of things we both find obscene

A score from your heart with myself as arch-fiend

A lilt that says I am evil and do nothing but wrong

For you cast me as the villain in your heart's song.

I've known I can't change that, the song you play.

A harmony that crushes my heart, day after day.

A pain I must endure when you require my aid.

The penalty for an injustice others say I have paid.

So, I endure the orchestra of my sins that you conduct,

An aria of anguish played as my soul self-destructs.

A sin so great in your heart, it has it's own song, place and era.

As my heart sings only one lyric "I can love no other but Sarah".
