I am lost for words.
Silenced by the piercing knife of humanity
My spirit collects as fallen tears
Born as dreams, that drown in this insanity.
I am a single flame.
A single beacon of the man I try to be
So many faces line the street
Of friends and those who touch me.
Sometimes the fight to stand
Defies the effort spent
No matter who we try to please
Tears cloud our best intent.
Yet, I am still the one you see
Each time I claim your stare
I'm still the name you whisper soft
Where hidden secrets bear.
And I'm the one who writes your name
With love upon my heart
And steals the sunshine shadows falling
Everywhere you part.
And someday, some sweet someday
You will see this love is true
When loves sweet embers blaze the trail
That lead this heart to you
