I cower under decadent skies.
How can I try to rise,
when I despise the golden lies
you cast down with sunshine eyes?
Have you ever looked
into somebody else’s eyes,
and felt that this is the only world to which
you belong?
Like forever isn't a time,
but forever is a song,
and into them you want to climb.
or to just close your eyes
dream of them,
as everything melts
into a moon shaped fantasy.
If I walk this countryside.
Every inch, every mile.
Will I find that place
where the rest of my heart resides?
I know not its name, but it is sat delicately
in the dream place, where the soul smiles,
and the wind tastes
delicious upon my lips.
I can taste
its syrupy goodness.
Will I find it in the green trees of life?
I have a moon shaped hole inside,
where part of my heart did abide.
Now it beats only half of the time,
leaking blood throughout my rhymes.
It seeps into the words used.
Words like polluted, mistreated. Abused.
A moon shaped sea, the dark depths of misery,
but I can't see. Blinded by the golden tides
flooded my vision,
I need to let my river of tears
wash the waters aside,
before taking on this mission
I hold the remains of that
romantic heart
tghtly within my grasp.
Sat longingly in my palms,
gazing up at eyes.
glazed over with tears
that iced up too fast.
A romantic heart,
with scars
as wide as rivers,
but still love courses
rushing
through those
sandy banks,
It feels you. As you feel it.
So, sit and let the words fill the pit
of your stomach and refuel your tanks.
