Don’t the rain bring down forgiveness
don’t you hear the laughter of the children
as the sun weeps for the stranger
while he rests his head upon progress.
That moment you wanted back, is gone
filling your heart with hope you have won
it’s a second of decisions you just can’t bleed
that twist your pain and leave in agony.
This is my last night of broken sorrow
the last time you’ll have my soaring heart
I walk amongst the ruins of your salvation
finding you alone and smiling painful.
The last you will say, cannot forgive you
those moments are far gone and you are too
just remember the kiss is not the sequence
it is what you wanted but could not give.

Definitely sad, but definitely well written. Keep up the good work!

I'm a slow dying flower
In a frost-killing hour
The sweet turning sour and untouchable...
