Adios Mi Corazon

Adios to love, so-long to passion,
Farewell to those moments of bliss;
The time has come to say good-bye,
Most romance usually ends like this.

One seems to love the other less,
The other soon senses the change;
Someone decides it is best to go,
Two lives, once more, rearranged.

Coming face-to-face with myself,
While avoiding pain at all cost;
Finding I had never known love,
Nothing won, but how much was lost?

I wonder if something is missing,
Some innate emotion or drive;
Is the rhythmic beating of my heart
The only proof I have that I am alive?

This heart has lied to me so often,
Leaving me empty, leaving me alone;
Time to bid farewell to dreams of love,
Time to say, ‘Adios mi corazon.'
