Ashlee (with two E's)

By Misanthrope

Must my presence be so divine
For me to steal your breath
As you do mine

Must I be baptised, still glistening
Cleansed of all my earthly shortcomings

Cant I be born with secular eyes
Mortal and ready to uncontrollably cry
And exist in your untouched Eden

Must you forever haunt my dreams
Awake swimming
Precious memories fade to oblivion

If I could only sell my soul
Just to be made of solid gold
To have your love unconditional
