As I close my eyes,
embrace my mind,
and slowly filter out the light.
The only light that's left there is your glow.
Its haunting me inside my dreams
and finds its way through all the seams.
The patchwork, for protection I had sown.

I wonder, is it guilt or pride,
two words
my mind finds ways to hide,
two words
whose actions led to so much pain.
And then I think about that glow
and all the truths forever known.
I see that things will never be the same.......

but alas that glow it will remain.
