My loneliness isn't as urgent as yours is
But nevertheless I'm victim to forces
Beyond my control and outside of my reaching
The voices inside me are echoing, teaching,
Of errors and ways, of lifestyles I've chosen,
Of memories I'm tossing aside to keep frozen
The choices inside me are driving me further
To errors and lovers and memories to murder

To trust and create, my hands are like roses
They pray for forgiveness for a thorn that it knows is
Just digging in deeper, my well of despairing
The sun, it stays hidden, its warmth it's not sharing.
The path of my night is so harsh, you imagine
Your face should be smiling, it's me it should sadden
Your hope is my sunrise, you need to keep standing
My loneliness pulls like a soul's slow commanding

This needing within me, this thirst I want sated
You keep me in balance, my hunger abated
Your eyes are like glasswork in rhythm with fire
Your voice in me echoes, to whisper desire
The urgency softens, surrendering sweetly
I bask in your sunlight, your breath is what keeps me
From needing the air or my memory's distortion
You murder my sadness and kill my misfortune.
