An envelope of blank letters.
Sealed with a broken promise.
Dark sky has shed light.
Sunshine has breathed of life.
Clouded sears of crowded ears.
The wind calls for a Lover.
Noise of the storm was left torn.
Lightning hides behind the thunder.
Crying echoes of a fellow lost soul.
Grieving a time love was once whole.
Now the remnants of a trace of grace.
A smiling face of hidden mistakes.
Lie to me.
Truth is.
Lie to me.
Say you hated the times we shared.
Explain to me the eyes.
The look of confusion.
Write me a story
say it was all an illusion.
Why leave me in wonder?
concerned if i was enough
or just enough.
my love is collecting dust.
i fell for all of you.
every flaw you thought you had.
was the reason i became attached.
you said i saw you.
the real you.
the insecure not so sure.
love was a blur in your new world.
i thank you for the moments.
the glorious freedom of peace.
waking up to a day dream.
what a wonderful place to be.
