The cobblestone ground
Wavered more than me...

Embrace my soul as spring showers
Quench the thirst of budding life...

Shame on me for believing that this was different,
For fooling myself into thinking I was special...

She called me Red -
When the world collapsed...

Night cascades over the horizon,
Elegantly reclaiming its throne...

Smile for me -
Unveil the truths you hide beneath...

Her footsteps are already worn
Into the ground that leads away...

Silence overwhelms a tired soul
As they wander into the night...

She fakes her smile for those she loves
And quietly counts the minutes go by...

The wind swirls around me,
Leaves raining down while the cyclone whispers...

Gates of ivy and moss welcome me home
As I'm embraced by the loving tears of weeping...

She shrieks within the confines of the night,
Her hopes and dreams crushing, as if her bones...
