In your love, my blood

Pouring rain eyes feeling the storm,

lifeless hope fading into these tears.

Each drop of love shown in your eyes,

destined to live as one we become.

Sliced into veins of hope I dream,

feeling the light so dark in your love my blood.

Your hints of today becoming our tomorrow,

as a single tear forms in my arm as I fall.

Want is now the only need I have left,

pour on my heart your truth behind.

Find me there inside of your touch,

broken to find the meaning of desire.

Nothingness nonetheless is emptiness,

filling hands with the love I have in you.

No healing this wound made to survive,

desperate eyes seeking only its own.

I wish to sleep until I make it into your arms,

writhing painless sorrow reigning over me.

You feel each tear cried from my body,

knowing only the very solitude we share.

Together in what is left of the night we stand,

as my pain becomes who we are in love.

Break me apart from myself to find me,

walls of denial broken to allow you inside.

Beating heart crying from yesterdays gone,

making our forever fall away into our eyes.
