Lonesome Cries

I hate the pain that you must feel inside,
I hate the way it burns behind your eyes,
I hate the fact I can't be by your side,
I hate that no one hears your lonesome cries.

Give me your pain I'll take it deep inside,
Let it burn within my vigilant eyes,
As you cruelly thrust the spear in my side,
Only you will hear my blood curdling cries.

I ignore the pain I now hold inside,
As I search for the sparkle in your eyes,
I gently wrap my arm around your side,
In a bid to banish your anguished cries.
I will kiss oblivion from your eyes
So I can silence all your lonesome cries.

Lovers

My heart is unbridled, I cannot pretend,

That all I require is just a good friend.

I need a companion, a lover, and then

Maybe, just maybe, I’ll find love again.

I searched in my heart for what love should be,

I realised too late that it always starts with me,

To love oneself is a challenge, not a goal,

You won’t find redemption if you don’t have a soul.

My passion is a burden, too much for one man,

If I let if go I will be dead again

I will foster and keep it, then set it free,

I’ll use it to catch you and bring you to me.
