The menacing shadows weave silently Inching their way into my once tranquil sleep. Tentacle like visions invade The placid Dreamscapes of my slumbering mind. So tired of having to want; Only needing what’s required to truly live. Despair well nigh devoured hope Engorged on trepidations, I find That solely for loves sake My resolve of spirit toils As the uninvited shadows languish, Succumbing to the dawns gentle light I arise to hope another day And I smile With my twisted heap of naive heartstrings broken My soul filled with the bittersweet essence of All the hollow passion since faded into fantasies Hardened, steeled emotions never asking favor Forever willing to face the edge of loves abyss Just to take the plunge once more And I still smile…

And I smile
The menacing shadows weave silently Inching their way into my once tranquil sleep. Tentacle like visions invade The placid Dreamscapes of my slumbering mind. So tired of having to want; Only needing what’s required to truly live. Despair well nigh devoured hope Engorged on trepidations, I find That solely for loves sake My resolve of spirit toils As the uninvited shadows languish, Succumbing to the dawns gentle light I arise to hope another day And I smile With my twisted heap of naive heartstrings broken My soul filled with the bittersweet essence of All the hollow passion since faded into fantasies Hardened, steeled emotions never asking favor Forever willing to face the edge of loves abyss Just to take the plunge once more And I still smile…
