Collect it all, take it back,
take every breath you gave...
She's hurt inside.
wondering why...
The empty playground
yields no laughter here...
I sit under the tree
A haven for solace...
A storm doles out this dismal night
Rain drops drizzle down cobblestone course...
When I raze each hurt
Brought unsolicited before...
An icy zephyr
Bestows the night...
Bring to me,
a bouquet of black roses...
I remember so clearly,
The day you moved away...
As I watched her standing upon the desolate...
I embraced her pain as if they were my own...
So peaceful is the dark,
So quiet, so serene...
I surrender
To the look residing in your eyes...
