My Heart Scored Yet My Love Never Fades

Unnerving silence screams through my mind The death of a friend, the birth of a brother Why must the fate of yesterday’s mistakes Taunt me and dangle reality in my face Release your eyes and view the blunders of life Take comfort in the sweet deceit that befalls you The forbidden window locked and forgotten The traces of revenge plotted to reform Finger the lock, feel the suspense within Peer through the passageway to things unseen Entice your mind with unearthly obsessions Befriend the vices that restrain you now The sweet smell of rejection fills the air Seeps from the door extinguishing your fire All the while whispering with a callused cadence Yes I love you, but it’s just too hard To stand in front of you with a sweetly torn heart
