And in the dark, where you dissolve like dust
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
as if we never ever
were
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
