Array ( [sid] => 30410 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Rifts [time] => 2003-12-30 09:53:17 [hometext] => The first few verses started well, but then descended into rubbish, in my opinion. I like to think of this as my overly mushy romantic poem. Make what you will of it. [bodytext] => This heart is rifting and the world seems tainted
Serpentine thoughts of one gazing from a glasshouse
I cast a spell to keep you away from my heart
But words are nebulous, so you met me again
The end is near and you bring fear
As I did fall through so you shall too.

I bought a glacier to stand as my fortress
A wall of ice serving as a shield
I made it winter within the shackles of my mind
But when you come, it's an unprecedented hell
You make the cold depart from my heart
This song of Lucifer reflected in the mirror
Of a thousand sins dancing with each other
Of a thousand dreams resounding in the dark.

I see the cracks in the glass where you touched it
Strange senses bid me to come to your side
Mysterious orbs draw me into the healing forest
And I see a fairytale reflected in your eyes
Loss of pain is not what I expected to gain
Or a retrieval of love sent from above.

Now the walls have all crumbled to the ground
And the demons have chosen to hunt somewhere far away
Those vowing eyes of yours tell me I'm not alone
Pain is illusive in the magic of your enthralling presence
Heal me and soothe me till I find myself free
If the roots show through then I'll bind myself to you
If life means rising then I'll keep on living.
