Ever Growth
The dawn breaks into tiny pieces,
Shatters into dust,
In a flash my heartbeat ceases,
Life cruel and unjust,
Memories of days with you,
Bittersweet and lust,
Everyday your love decreases,
In you, I cannot trust.
Falling from the grace of Heaven,
Numb and incomplete,
I'd swim across the River Severn
For you to repeat
The words you once whispered so soft,
With which I can't compete,
Time stands still - it's now or never,
To erase deceit.
My heart is broken, six feet down,
You leave me here for dead,
To break my soul I shan't allow,
For too long I have bled,
I will not falter, will not bow,
On I you cannot tread,
I'll stand 'til I'm below the ground,
In my wooden bed.
