I know exactly where I was when I First saw you the way I see you now, through these eyes, waiting to retry Those pristine days I recall so fondly So few are trials when a life isn't lonely, and now if only I'd never felt it, I'd never heard it I know I loved you, did I even deserve it, when you returned it? There's no suspicion, no hesitation Believing through the eyes of sore, adoration Witness and know, fracture and hurt Eyes in the fire, blink unrehearsed Shield like a house, closing its doors Curved in the dark, rinses of yours Ashtray is crowded, bottle is empty No music plays and nothing moves without drifting, into a memory Busy apartment, no room for grieving Sink full of dishes and no trouble believing, that you are leaving Mid-sentence tremors, mind at its weakest One way of shaking off the thoughts that it sleeps with Witness and know, fracture and hurt Eyes in the fire, blink unrehearsed Shield like a house, closing its doors Curved in the dark, rinses of yours In walks the darkness, I pitch without you Asks me do I realize what I'd done and who I'd done to, indeed I do know? It never leaves me, just visits less often It isn't gone and I won't feel its grip soften, without a coffin Breathing beside me, feeling its warmness Phantom affection gives a human, performance Witness and know, fracture and hurt Eyes in the fire, blink unrehearsed Shield like a house, closing its doors Curved in the dark, rinses of yours

Thank you! ;-) T
