ridden by the wind and your words, stinging me as I kneel before the moon

I have not seen you breathe in this icy room, the hallway that follows

You're so cold your shadow should shine against the darkened stars

Still, your eyes speak a hollow promise as your fingers glide off mine

alone here

in the brighter silence

 

I did hurt your honest solitude, the pride which lets you fall

while standing, your surrender will be like a moth to the light

And in my eyes your reflection sways as the dust embraces my heart
