Beautiful Thorn
Walls enclosing my heart, shutting out the lights
My thoughts drifting back to our loved filled nights
My soul perished by my own wrongs
Music now a curse, I shuffle threw our songs
You have become a beautiful thorn in my side
Cutting in deeper as my longing becomes a limp in my stride.
Slowly i snuff out the flames burning for you.
Failing every time with day dreams of us two.
Rocking myself in the arms of the enemy.
Knowing i had recklessly committed a felony.
Would you still believe in me after all i have done.
Holding me in your sweet embrace whispering i am the one.
My soul is wilting away without you
I watch my eyes turning grey from blue.
This longing has brought me to my knees
I can feel my heart slower its beat as my soul weeps.
Come back to me my lost dark sparrow.
Touch my wounds dripping remove this self driven arrow.
Help me dry these tears from my dying eyes
Take my hand don't let go. Walk with me into the forever sun rise.
