In my darkness, you are a shining beacon of light.
A lamp post, street side in the darkest night.
When all of the stars, and even the moon
Decide to depart from the sky -
I’m still drawn to your fire.
Seeking warmth and comfort like a moth
Against the soft-framed glass panes of your life.
Because - MY GOD! -
In deep darkness, how brilliantly you shine! And
In the crucible of my life
When all things burnt out, blackened, and
All I loved had withered and died -
There in the ashes, among the wreckage
I saw a diamond sparkling, so these hesitant fingers pried it apart
And now...
Here you are. Standing by my side,
Singing back to me my very own pain.
Killing me, so softly
With the way that you sing.
Oh, my darling. For you,
I would burn down anything.
And only for You...
Beautiful Diamond Of Mine.
