Damnation Struggles at my soul Reaching for the words you breathed Alone, weren't you cold? Struggling to ease off your shoulder And onto my own feet I stumble to the broken ledge Was this your dirty treat? Searching blindly for those words You had whispered tenderly Your hand had reached through the cobwebs And said the words I ached for desperately. My body's warmed this floor. Your eyes have my soul glazed With tiny droplets of ice Where you once loved and praised. Alone I will wait for you here Searching for the words My body trembles, aches, to hear. Once Again I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |

~nods at Albert~ Yes, it did feel nice at the time. Thanks for the comment as always! Thomas, thanks much to you both! I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. |
