This Place

There is a place so dark and sacred A temple of shattered porcelain A place for which you lye A place I hold you high Upon a pillar of golden beams of sunlight You dance so freely and gorgeously Sprinkling starlight dust onto the broken shadows You make the darkness shine You make the ruins glow You rebuild For here in this place, for right here in my heart you shall always lye Creating gorgeous harmony and delight Right here, in my heart, I shall keep you close I’ll hold you tight, and bask in your summer heat I’ll dance along in tune to you, casting the shadows away For here in my heart, it is you who created the beauty out of my destruction For this place is you
