Channel all your pain
to the summoned fields of my sun-baked heart
let me be your long-suffering, xeriscaping soil
--once rain-fed by this love--
now as parched as
Atacama
the plateau where we bowed our heads
and pleaded for mere drops of forgiveness
to the summoned fields of my sun-baked heart
let me be your long-suffering, xeriscaping soil
--once rain-fed by this love--
now as parched as
Atacama
the plateau where we bowed our heads
and pleaded for mere drops of forgiveness
