darkness falling

feather light

words shaping

unknown fright

 
simple business

see the way

stars and oceans

 to a better day

 
infinite sorrow

 defines my dream

return to fragile

with a quiet scream
 

inner beauty

beyond the core

gentle touch

I ask for more

 
eternal fire

consumes the sky

quenched by tears

but never cry
 

try to hold forever

between love and pain

but soon washed away

by a silent rain
