EveOfThorns

Of Dust And The Graven Widow

I’m holding your tears forever, to release this part of me
Secluded, I need someone
My life is twisting around me, and I can’t breathe

The memory haunts, every vision of you, scarred with my fear
The compassion I cry
And now I’m staring at my reflection
But the paleness cannot glow
For every tear that falls from you, I bleed
And you are stained with emotion, just like me

With your sins, you paint the oceans
So grey with tragedy
Never forgotten, the way you stray unknown
Of one rose shared, by two cold hands
That will never see what I dream
Never feel, what’s been taunting me since I let go
Of that last petal, the fallen hope

The soil beneath, pulls me in, a void encircles the wind
I saw that face through fields of black
The silver shade that spoke into her heart
The wind blew the other way, cutting into the fog
And the rose began to shed the loss
Her jaded ghost, of dust and the graven widow
