I would still bring you from behind the scented blossom air and I do despise myself. With a good man that curls me around his heart in every moment eyes meet, there is no comparison but I do and I hate myself . . . Still finding you in the silence of all journeys alone with passing fields reminders of summer's breath never the loneliness, and I know I'm a fool when our special something had rotted a concrete death long before this with the blossom fallen and I could sever your roots that seem to hold me in position but I don't know how . . . |

It's hard, huh? I wish I knew the answer. But I love your words and how you bind them together. "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

awesome gem, the only change i'd consider is this line in the second last verse. with the blossom fallen it's not the line itself, i just think it works better without, the preceeding lines sent the message through without the need for this metaphor |
