Sanctuary, Take me from these wintry prisons That captive, I am, through misery’s fangs Be still, defiant, no more to me my course heart beats, so guiltily Harsh words I spoke, regret, I fold Your care, I trust, to gaurd me safe Humility bars me, I fall so low I’m sorry.. I’m sorry… Defeat, I pulse, my blood runs warm In relief, my spirits, content to you Vulnerability guides me to your arms Sanctuary, take me away to your heart Hold me not to my flaws Forgive me, my love, I plea… I’m sorry… I’m sorry.. ——————————————————— Sanctuary, Such solitude, you rescued me My love, I gave compassionately Yet now I find I’ve lost the sight No sanctuary, are you, this night In light, I guard my heart from you This pain I suffer, I hold anew With filth and bile, my body tense Struck upon your cheek, my harsh caress Alone I sit, to ponder such strength of love Such confound deeds you treason for I surrender myself to a subconscious alcove Understand me, I have strength none more I have forgiven I can’t forget Sanctuary, Apologize, your actions speak Arrogance,your sin, you live vanity A lust you craved, such a tempting taste The distinctive man now gone to waste Bountiful bosoms, and laughter equips All of my once pleasure and happiness Selfish desires, contrite you now seem Was my heartbreak worth your wanton need? I’m vulnerable, you seem so strong I live imprisoned within your arms I take you back, my weakness of love You rapture my heart, your mistakes undone I have now forgiven I can’t forget
