My love is as in a cave
Held by the memory of your beauty

My hands can not hold your essence
While my eyes are chained
To the lingering of your echoes.

For you are as shadows
From the fire

The Cave

My love is as in a cave
Held by the memory of your beauty

My hands can not hold your essence
While my eyes are chained
To the lingering of your echoes.

For you are as shadows
From the fire
