Hope in the Mourning

11 | 1 , 0 0 0 y e a r s

Miserable woman I am
As I hear your words graze the sky.
I'm being lead by my heart
But my mind is saying goodbye.

I'm pulling away fervently
And you hold on so tight.
Your loving eyes are tearing up
As I move you from my sight.

There's a steady pulse in your veins
And I'm cringing as it inches closer.
Your hand is locked in mine
And I'm feeling your mind lose power.

Darling, you're forever inside my soul.
If I loved you I would keep you for eternity.
But this is where I let you go
So I can find my serenity.

There's a brush of your fingertips
Through the thickness of my hair.
I'm feeling the softness of your forehead against my lips.
As I pull away, your glossy eyes just stare.

I desire to hold on until we pass
But the truth is, everything has faded inside.
They knew this could never last.
How could we have been so foolish?

I'm moving through the trees
And you are stuck in the grass.
I'm saying goodbye to my demons,
But you've made yours last.

I have found truth inside of me
And you sleep on a bed of distrust.
Your intentions were "innocent"
But depart from you I must.

Bright eyes, you shine right through me.
I wish you could see the joy when you're around.
But darling, you're fading quickly,
And you're losing your precious sound.

There was not love
For what I now see is infatuation.
We were crippled by this crime
For we put ourselves in this situation.

My dear, wipe away those tears.
I am not leaving you for the rest of your days.
I will always be right here,
Even after the infatuated haze.

Come close to me and feel my heart.
It's beating along with yours, so in sync.
My smile is yours to keep,
Even though this love is what I do not seek.

Fly away from your terrors
And glide with the sea.
I have been set into the flames of the sky,
And I wish you to be just as free.

Do not be a hostage to your sorrow
But become a beautiful creation.
Become who you've always wanted to be,
Someone to every tribe and nation.

Because I love you
I am holding you upright.
I do not desire eternity with you,
But I desire a glorious and beautiful flight.

I am traveling on my own current of winds;
You must find where you belong.
I cannot always be by your side
But you will find your home again—

Before the day is gone.

Remember everyone, it's okay to let go if it means it's best for you.
MAKE YOURSELF A PRIORITY.
