Passion

Backwards taste of ripping cloudless skies Grasping what one empty world cant give Piecing apart the broken wings of grace Separating what two can be as one Eyes wide shut escaping- clenching tight Wanting things beyond such senseless acts One heartbeat breathing in the empty air Holding fast- exhaling you relax Fingertips of mercy, hands of grace Kneeling near you feel the coldness fade Together putting pieces back together Whispers float as sweetened love you gave Heavy eyelids opening windows wide Feeling sweeping wind grace by your cheek Sewing shut the salty breaks in life Touching endless clouds you now do keep Looking back- escaping all my flaws Reaching out revealing all you are Founded in the one true love of loss Shining deep within you bare by scars
