Alone Again

All that you have done
has a sword dangling over me
with threats to return me to the darkness
without cause
 For love
the cost is too great
so I let you go
returning to a life once known
 Alone but peace is here
a life being built brick by brick
see within me all that is great
and watch it blaze
