A Beautiful Disaster

I'm listening to the rain falling

Through this silent lonely night,

Looking at the horizon,

Where my heart is calling

Me, separated from my mind.

I, disenchanted, feeble, frail,

Give in to weakness, momentary.

My pride's a guile, I'm not afraid

That you'll discover all my truth -

You know where my hope is buried

Much better than I do.

On me you shed your inner light -

Turn into shadows my fears.

If I could stay with you tonight

And in the morning disappear,

Or die, but in your arms... I'd die.

And I indulge in just one dream

Till it's dissolved in fresh spring air

By winds of anguish and despair

When once blue skies just seem so dim

Without you there.

Twenty-five hours a day,

Eight days a week of you I'm thinking.

Forgive my sins of yesterday

And stay with me... don't leave me sinking

In waters of dismay.

Very poignant.
