Out Shined

You gave freedom to my soul By unlocking prison's door. I hide in your shadows asking for more. Your here must you leave so soon. With you within me i feel like the space between the earth and the moon. With me now , and always forever mine. When i fall asleep for the very last time Let world make no sound When they lower me into the ground. Please make no sound. From the ground i see the tears flow. Like the hands of a beggar never let me go. With you I tasted the sweetest of wine. Like a candle you blow out the sun, so i may never be out shined.
