Longing

I long to find a serum for my soul To ease the tearing pain I've come to know. A potion that would ease my troubled head and take away the thoughts I truly dread. A tonic to erase my memory of strength and grace which haunt me constantly. An elixir to stop my bleeding heart Would that I never found you from the start. I long to find a path that leads to you. The road before laden with simple truth. Were I to find a drug or find my way I'd take you in my arms and seize the day And take a thousand pictures with my eyes; Collateral against tearful goodbyes.
