Untitled
When at last the sun has
melted
from a dark and inter sky
where the lights replaced by
shadows
and the wind begins to cry
In the darkest of the corners
from the depths of your despair
if you gaze into your heartache
youll find me hiding there
standing in the silence
of all which you despise
I trap you in the innocence
of deep and dangerous eyes
Intregued by the puzzle
a piece or two short, maybe
more
an unmistakable mystery
you simply cant ignore
at first the game is easy
youre simply out to win
to catch the moons darkest
shadow
to learn to love again
Excited by the challenge
at first you ventured on
but challenge turned to
heartache
suddenly not as strong
you knew you couldnt tame me
but still you had to try
and when you lost the
unattainable
you left the love to die
I left you to the sorrow
of your own device
for in the game of puzzles
its not the puzzle who pays the
price
and when the sun first rises
and you cling to what was left
I drift away in laughter
and leave you to your regrets
the chance is brief and fleeting
for a glimpse into the night
for once the rtuth of day
abounds
the shadows are out of sight
