Like a dagger Like a dagger You found me one moment Lost me in the next Lasting like a kiss A moment of sweetness before we part Like a dagger Slipping into my heart Unnoticed when I fell into your embrace A moment of warmth before everything cools Like a dagger A thing to protect A thing to kill A whisper that can heal and lie Like a dagger Pretty, cherished Hiding the danger A poison hidden in your eyes Like a dagger It hurts But we heal Leaving a scar When the night's shadow falls Gently caressing your heart Remember this Our guards tremble before the passion Our defenses break between the kisses But the pain once it's gone Stealing away your surrender Leaving you empty and broken Is like a pain deeper than any other It burns It aches It destroys And nothing more could be its comparison For love, once poisoned, Is like a dagger "Sometimes stars can only be seen in darkness." "Sorrow's crown of sorrow is remembering happier things." |

Powerful words here! I enjoyed this! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |
