Scarred Nights

 

Scarred Nights

When I looked into your eyes that day,
I didn't misread
When I looked into your eyes that day,
They cried my name,
Blazing with fervor, they spoke to me
To my heart and core,
My being and more.
I rested upon your beating heart,
Consumed by your arms, by your warmth.
The evening walks and our endless laughter,
Your silly songs that made my day,
For once,
For the very last time...
Will you come and hold my hand?
When the whole world goes silent
Will you come and sing for me?
When every inch of me goes numb
Will you hold me in your arms?
For once for the very last time
Will you make me yours?
The aching void
As a part of me ripped apart
With your sail.
When I looked into your eyes that day,
I knew I was yours.
