Everheart,

Fragmented
you give yourself away
and lose another piece
While you starve
these beasts will feast

Disconsolation proves
Rejection causes collapse
Wretchedness moves
To reside in these cracks

You've been here before
Far from tomorrow
Where promises live
And happiness borrowed

You cry to stop the beating
You scream for an end
But the cycle keeps repeating
And you'll start again

Make me smile
Or take it away

Give blue skies
Or turn them grey

Wish me well
Or curse my name

I'm in love but not loved
So it's all the same

She'll read this as proof of my thoughts when she's away
That my mind never drifts, or heart ever sway,

And this beautiful ache I know as space
Is just another way to know her grace.

So I'll wait.

If only for a moment of her time,
I'll take what she gives,
A minute, or lifetime.
