the life I had
the one unmade
by knots of love
bound and gagged
for all my failings
take the blame
there is no mending
hearts estranged

layers sloughed
to make for new
leave behind
what I can't use
in forgiveness
find recourse
release the tether
of remorse

Stepping out behind the dying in the day
I saw my own hands breaking just trying to hold on
And grew tired of the smiles full of serrated blades
I've tasted blood
I've killed before in a manic rage
My waterfall
The calamity

I can't
It can't
Be this way
I can't wield the knife
I can't carry it with me wherever I go
It can't be all I know
It can't

Falling back into horizons as the sun
I saw myself in a new light and the hope I dream
I've learned what the moon means when she speaks to me
I've tasted truth
Honey as the flavor on my tongue
Saccharine
And happiness

I can
It can
Be this way

Oh my dear love
You are in my thoughts
You are in my heart
You fulfill my fantasy
I can see you today
You,looking so sweet
Just like a star on the sky
In the middle of the night
Your eyes twinkling
And staring at moon
I will be there soon
I swear I'm not a loon
For me you are a boon
Your silent lips
& Murmuring heart
Saying 'I love you'
Your face shines
And decorates the sky
Your soft hand in my hand
And make a galaxy of love
Your presence in the sky
And your brightness shy
Follow the path of love
Your voice is attractive
That enchanting me
Your beautiful smile
Make me feel so happy
You are my star
Far away from me
To see you
To meet you
I want wings to fly
To Soar in the sky
To talk with you
Walk with you
And love you.
