I walked away in floods of tears
After you got your claws in me
I buried the pain over the years
And it rest at the bottom of my hearts sea

But memory beat the deep, deep fathoms
Your smile resurfaced in my mind
Dreams and love are not made of atoms
But consist of an ether, mysterious, refined

Which ought be welcome when it exhibits itself
Light which strikes and sparks the soul
Eviscerates portents of ill health
Connect us to the one and all

You repented for my hurt, as I did yours
But we burdened by toxic legacy
Yet my inner tiger roar
And will for us a future free

Of petty hostility that leads to hate
Hate, hate, an irrational state
So I serve my heart up on a plate
And try this union to create
