A tender poets locution,
Captivating my soul with sorrow remark.
Has saved myself from drowning isolation
And through our words, becomes a spark.

With sound be in stitches
Your eyes deep enrapture,
My soul is at home
With your infectious laughter.

Relief from my affliction,
Wonderful illusion finds me vulnerable.
I find peace in your reflection
This sensation; overwhelmingly desirable

But I’m not the muse behind your art
You’re poetic love rests not with me
By the end of this night we’ll continue apart
Just like we’re wistfully fated to be.

You broke me while I made you.
I fell for all your spells
I went in this without a clue
You dragged me to your hell

I made myself a bridge for you
To save you from the life you chose
Hesitant to start a new
But little did I know...

It’d take you longer to adjust,
Temptations call you back.
That white poison you did trust
And me, you would attack.

I fought and cried and begged you to see
The decisions you have made
But you sat back and watched me bleed
So I made the faithless trade

Piece by piece I split my soul
To build you up and make you whole
You finally saw, and I was proud
But now I had my own rain cloud

And when I looked to you for help
I became a nuisance
So I placed this smile that wasn’t felt
And held this anger true since

For without the chances that I gave
You wouldn’t be the man I made.

On this twisted black night there is only silence but for the cold abrasive winds that scream through these chilled limbs I cannot feel
Leaving my hair tossed into a mangled craze
I no longer see the path that leads me to safety.

But then I hear your soft calls break through these prison cell walls.
I feel your warmth embrace my fears
I reach for your grasp, desperate for security
My sweet escape

Sweet poetic lullabies you sing to me
I listen as the sun rises from your lips
The last chilled breeze releases itself among this warmed summers soil
I can finally hear the birds sweet song

Oh my sweet nightingale, you’ve released me from my cell
My soul is saved and a wonderful companion I have made.

For my thoughts were the cold impassive night.
And this tangled mess I wear because
I longed to pry these thoughts out of sight.
I no longer hush my pains to the back of my mind.
Because I realize now I’m unconfined.

And it’s because of you that now I know.
But if I knew... that I’d find you
I’dev suffered long ago.
