Rainbow Roses - Above the Mourning Mist

You hand me a rainbow rose
And you peck my red nose
You wished me a farewell with a sunlit glee I can't forget
I can't recall the times we spent in bliss...I only remember those days of gullible decisions I've committed when I was young full of no regret
I am a night owl...
I hear the werewolves' growl
I'm not a dawn dove...
I wish I can spread my wings to escape below by being lost in a universe of above love 

I guess I'll be a speck of nothing in your eyes
I was confused to find that you were telling me lies
You're not alone - I am stuck in my own home...
A prison I am chained to, awfully on my own...nowhere to roam 
Save me...see me through...
Gravity pulls me down...
Rescue me from mourning dew...
Weeping, sleeping, grieving, relieving myself because of your deceiving ways that led me astray - you handed me a bad luck crown 

I've made up my mind to heal your wounds of the past
You were left behind without a trace...I'll try to keep pace
With your heart that pounds satisfaction into my blood at last 
I'm losing my mind...I'm hanging in there with sweat trickling down my grimy face 
I thought it over with your echoing voice, ringing in my ears
I have an infatuation towards you for a long time, seems like years
I need to tell you what's on my mind since you're departure left me shattered in shards of sadness
I wanted to caress your face that shines triumphantly like the sun during the arrival of the dawn...dousing upon me delight that leads to inner success

Chasing away my fears...
Drying out your tears...
I hold on to your letter of get-better 
And I hold it next to my heart...thank God I met her 
I was the new me until I blew it With the old nature that makes me feel like ****
Temptation and lust neglected me after using me temporarily - speaking 
Frustration must fade away from my heart or it will tear me apart - God's spirit and Love is what I'm seeking
I'm a fish that gets caught in temptation's net
I'm longing to get out, but to no avail - I'm awfully upset
I've learned the hard way how to be a happy individual
God, thankfully, pumped me up with faith fuel 

I guess I'll be a speck of nothing in your eyes
I was confused to find that you were telling me lies
You're not alone - I am stuck in my own home...
A prison I am chained to, awfully on my own...nowhere to roam 
Save me...see me through...
Gravity pulls me down...
Rescue me from mourning dew...
Weeping, sleeping, grieving, relieving myself because of your deceiving ways that led me astray - you handed me a bad luck crown 

I've made up my mind to heal your wounds of the past
You were left behind without a trace...I'll try to keep pace
With your heart that pounds satisfaction into my blood at last 
I'm losing my mind...I'm hanging in there with sweat trickling down my grimy face 
I thought it over with your echoing voice, ringing in my ears
I have an infatuation towards you for a long time, seems like years
I need to tell you what's on my mind since you're departure left me shattered in shards of sadness
I wanted to caress your face that shines triumphantly like the sun during the arrival of the dawn...dousing upon me delight that leads to inner success

Growing weaker by the second
I feel this special connection, a friendship bond
That I adore so much and I treasure it everyday 
I opened the door of opportunities and it blew me away
From negativity's hold
I was once shy, but now I'm bold
Your hands on mine, warmth gives in to the cold
Wrap yourself around me and we will be as one - let the tales of our future unfold 
The truth hurts as they always say
Pleasure and pain I feel every night and day
I was taught to smile during hardship 
I was also taught to get a man's grip 
Now, I'm above the mourning dew 

Somehow, I feel for you too...and you had no clue...
That I was the hue of blue
When I was here without you
