Those that cannot embrace your darkness;
Don’t deserve to feel your light.
If you want to feel,
Just how deep love can be.
Come take my hand,
Sit in my darkness with me.
Looking out the window .
Stare at the wasteland within.
Hear the thunder in the distance:
Feel the winds of change blowing again.
Strangers sharing time and space.
Too done to let the other in.
Chasm where two hearts once lived.
Etched in blood, shedding dead skin.
Too tired to fight anymore,
Easier to turn blind eye and stay.
Keep it all locked behind walls.
Fate far worse than any grave.
Charred remains of another life.
Finding myself in the dark,
Loosing what has been outgrown.
Let the ending go so the beginning can start.
I’m here for now,
But won’t always be.
Time turns the wheel,
Outpacing destiny.
Turning into dust,
Scattered through eternity.
Alone isn’t lonely
It’s just knowing we’re apart
Days spent in absence
Slowly breaking my heart
Unknown in the solitude
As the seasons change again
Failing to find a reason
Memories of the past, my only friend
Hold onto hope for one more day
Wrapped in winters frigid spell
Wishing time would move a little faster
Get us out of this frozen helL
Warm ourselves with love and laughter
Thats present when we’re together
Being away might not break the world
But by your side is so much better.
Dancing in dreams again.
Not knowing where reality begins.
Cradling hearts till the music ends.
Eternal symphony for lovers, and friends.
Been waiting for the end to begin,
While learning to trust me again.
For so long I have been completely numb,
Longing to simply be done.
You have taken so much of my life,
To the point, I didn’t want to survive.
My fault was believing you would change,
So I only have myself to blame.
Though I never deserved to be treated this way,
It was always my choice to stay.
Somewhere deep inside I still have faith,
That myself I will save.
I can see behind your fragile mask,
Nothing more of you I will ask.
Over the years I learned, I grew.
The answer this time, it’s me I choose.
