Torn

By Syn

And so you're torn
Ashamed of the life that you've made
But afraid of the lies that you fake

And dreams will wash ashore, as the gentle breeze flows through your body.

I've cried the same tears that you are...
I've killed that same pain inside me...
I've dreamt of the same, flawless moonless nights...

Some claim that I cannot feel...
Never underestimate, the feelings that inherit me.

I've felt the rain on a cold winter day.
I've felt the storms plague this place.
I've felt the wrath of a greedy god, that has stripped me of my sanity.

Trust me, my Love, I feel your pain.

And when Kingdom Comes you will rise above and see the treasures that lie hidden in this place.
You will feel the breath of those that have haunted you, as they are left with no identity.

You will see the death of anything beautiful fade under your touch, as you will it away.
You will see love on a golden plateau, and I there awaiting you. I am yours to the end. And as I remain a fragment of your mind, and a speck in your soul, I know one day we will fly freely. Until the end of time, this heart is yours. You have my love, til Kingdom Comes.

    ..this just moves so nicely, like waves against a beach, a husky voice almost whispering in your ear. Nicely done.
