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.
