Flames Within

How long can one weep
burnt by the agony
of separation?

These are the words
my tears hymn
the soul cries
dressed in sorrow

Oh how I have sinned
the sin of honesty
now I am silent

Where are the eyes that see
the flames within
burning my pen

I lament the moon
lost in darkness
wanting to go home

From dusk to dawn
I seek the sun
Where is my heart?

I tore it apart
cast it into the night
so all the million pieces
may shine as tiny stars
shine my love for you
look upon the heaven
heal me

Dare to love me
I hear your whispers
“…set me free…”
killing me softly with your words
how long will you resist me?

All I ever wanted was love
I swear my love
my love is yours
