Pebble In the Sand

I’m not yours, I do not belong to you I can not be found as I am not lost Even though our stars are destined to cross Our love will shine in a different hew No red stained rose can declare my heart true As over your tears my lips gently gloss Absorbing your pain like riverside moss Such tenderness of love is mine to do But my soul will not be still in your hand For love will never pierce my heart of stone Not in the ways that any can understand Although I’m beside you I am alone Like a pebble amid the grains of sand The candle that burns to guide you back home
