Deserted Hearts

From the distant voices lost at sea The seven eyes and blurry dreams From the depths of every hidden land There comes a love that’s made of sand Through every loss and dying heart Stands a darkness that departs With the trust of caring minds To build the strength to make us blind Whispers of a painful time Dead end places, painful rhymes Dreaming everything you do Becoming cold to get you through Speaking to reflecting eyes Hoping they can see you cry Resting up in fading arms Until reflections bring you harm Nothing but the rain and dust Tumbling in and out of lust Hearts unseen within despair Living dead and without care
