Torn Skies

You have a beautiful mind,
Spun with elegant and beautiful lies,
And maybe time flies,
When you pull your lips against mine.

And maybe it's all a guise,
When you stare into my eyes,
Saying that love and hate is borderline,
Lashes fluttering like butterflies,

We're like the torn skies,
When it comes sunrise,
A canvas of paints that mesmerise,
And a romance that will agonise,

Because you will never be mine,
When your hands will find,
Another's to hold throughout the night,

And all your poems eulogise,
Lovers who are left behind,
People left broken and blind,
From lovers who ran out of time,

Because you are no more than a lie,
And sometimes I wish that I could die,
When your fingers brush against mine,
And I'm nothing more than another goodbye.
