What love that burns so deep the light that flares a thousand miles of caves so dark the world above is lost to that which it once was From plain a heart that was left to seek another while left bereft of the hands that held its two halves together Of where does such sadness live On what does it survive When starved and broken From where does it find its fight If love was the solider from heaven sent Why would it allow its two halves to separate Intertwined the threads of love that remain Are bold as the ivy that strangles the tree in its embrace From such intense love comes the most devastating heart break And in the final hours of the day The final moments you wish you could forget They are the friends that hold you back They are the walls that protect They are the soldiers that stand and fight For when the light is dimed and the moon not yet arisen The in-between that allows the heart to rest Is the eye of the storm of loves great battle lost.

What Love
What love that burns so deep the light that flares a thousand miles of caves so dark the world above is lost to that which it once was From plain a heart that was left to seek another while left bereft of the hands that held its two halves together Of where does such sadness live On what does it survive When starved and broken From where does it find its fight If love was the solider from heaven sent Why would it allow its two halves to separate Intertwined the threads of love that remain Are bold as the ivy that strangles the tree in its embrace From such intense love comes the most devastating heart break And in the final hours of the day The final moments you wish you could forget They are the friends that hold you back They are the walls that protect They are the soldiers that stand and fight For when the light is dimed and the moon not yet arisen The in-between that allows the heart to rest Is the eye of the storm of loves great battle lost.
