unbroken

I must confess here and now i feel unwell
The more i fight it the more i hurt as i linger in denial
Among all the others love is the GREATEST of them all
Take away that and all your other pieces crumble and fall

Oh look how now in my fragility I'm shaken
How these little pleasures i indulged feels tasteless
From where i stood high above my rose has fallen
And in my chase i roll and roll in confusion

At night i lay in my bed to sleep but my sleep is wretched
For my mind , my thoughts and my emotions have run riot
My confidence is shaken and in my vulnerability I'm not my own
My old eloquence is my new incoherence, my words are not my own

This loss, this particular loss has left me broken
I bet the only place that i remain in fullness is outside myself
Eros the god of love has taken away my golden bow and arrows
Turning against me and now the sharp shafts deep in my heart now lodge

But how could two halves of a perfect heart that had held together fast,
Two halves of a perfect heart that was filled from the heart to the
lips with love,
Two halves of a perfect heart that stood soul to soul as years passed
Let love in its bloom, get plucked and die as a leaf that dies only in a day?

Oh Love lift up your eyes over this wall that stands between us
Meet mine and see where GREAT love is
For I have loved you with my whole souls might
And still my very love of you fills me

How I wish I could change my sweet one love with words
Put back the smile on those sweet lips that I once sipped from
And We would glow to rival the brightest of stars
You and me splendid in one spirit
