When Love Dies... (Laughter and Sunshine)

In my heart there is a place,
where Laughter and Sunshine
once put up a house.

They worked hard, side by side
to build a home; they named it
Trust and christened it Love.

They had children, soon adding;
Hope, Loyalty, and Faith
to this unruly yet, cherished place.

One day, Sunshine started to fade,
it scared Laughter, who sought
desperately for help.

Communication didn't say much
and Trust was busy weathering
the storm.

At their door, a stranger knocked,
Doubt was his name, he brought
Fear and Anguish to help.

Disenchantment soon moved in,
Pain, Tears, and Lonliness
came along, just to ensure
their job well done.

Sunshine faded away
and Laughter soon died,
Trust wouldn't return
and Love said its good-bye...

To the place where once
Hope, Loyalty, and Faith
reigned supreme.
