[bodytext] => The heart that beats The sun that sets The moon that rises The mind that thinks The love that remains cold Cold within the dark, smoldering ashes The light that gives no view The dark that gives no shade.... Isn't it strange to think That we were once friend That we were holding hands Walking side by side into the future Without a care? If only we knew what was going to happen Would things still be the same Or would they have ended differently? There is only one way to tell And that is for fate to decide The earth that no longer turns The time that does not exist The love that remains stale.... Didn't you know That the love we once had burned out Smothered within the smoldering ashes a long time ago? Deep down inside I know this is how I feel I know this is how I see the world And I cannot help that. No one can help me. For I am deep into the darkness That gives no shade. The oceans that stops in time The cries that remain silent The tears that have not yet left the eye Can you hear the pain? Can you sense the fear? The cold hatred.... The shame...? As time goes by we shall remember Nothing other that mere images of the past. Wouldn’t it be fastidious If we could just have one moment Where we could be together and I would not have to feel So alone in the darkness. The dark that gives no shade The light that gives no sight The colors that stay pale The eyes that cannot see The pain that this world truly endures Do you sometimes feel The water that drops upon your head? Feel the cold snow on your bare feet for the first time? Isn’t it bliss To think that you could taste the air Of the sweet tropics without being in your presence? I am not there, I shall be gone soon. I will be no longer a part of your traditions For I am my own person And no one else I go my own way And you go yours Our paths shall never meet nor cross again As you were so hoping to do. Still, there is no way that I can walk away No where to turn I am alone now, Without a shoulder to lean on And the only place for me to trust is the darkness....
