Sky Full of Stars

'Twas pain that taught my heart to bleed for sorrows of another... then kept my deepest heartfelt needs in silence to serve a buffer For in the cutting vein of love I saw a darkness unto death with eyes of a child had seen enough true love must stand the test Such is the pain too grievous to mourn speaking secrets craved by the heart to give another the power with which to tear your soul apart I've known the anguish of abandonment and fled inflictions sting I have faced the tyrants cruel mismanagement yet held my soul with wings Of all the wisdom borne by age no greater truth can be gave the soul is filled in the passing of days In the gaze of passions eyes and a lovers display So brash can be those memories scorned but fade they will like pages torn Tis a hand un-held, a tear un-brushed hearts crushed when the unspoken's not enough Let slip not away the music-less dance the kisses that tremor ones breath miss not the chance for that touch of romance what weight hath love unexpressed? No, it's not the passing wounds those flukes which plague ones journey that leave devout all faith renounced and deem sweet love unworthy Perhaps the greatest fear is that O're years in friendships tit for tat passed will be what faith once lacked and find such love not looking back In the blink of an eye the magic could subside to pang with hunger for the love of your life to know from hurt you cannot hide to trust is more than you realize So if I've tested the depths of devotion what storms your sails could bear 'twas solely because my love is only of any value unless it is shared Planned were not the trials endured yet it's what it took for my heart to ensure that love will bravely stand the test of time stronger than chance, more made by design And so to you I give in kind holding out for the dreams, in my heart, in my mind to trust at some blessed point will find That breathless kiss will dance on the lips which linger between yours and mine. A love outlasting infinity stumbling into guarded arms the simplest picture of serendipity by a childish wish on a sky full of stars
