I, ALONE
'Twas the night before
And in the wreckage, I bore
Weight like the ocean were above
In my grasp, she was ethereal
Pale before, khloros today
And I was trapped in the grey
Birds sing a morning song
But what am I to do so long?
So long it will feel wrong
'Twas the night before
You faded into weeping trees
Longing for the gentlest breeze
A rhyme for lost time
And the morning rime
So unhealthy was the fixation
Maybe need a vacation
Need to stop thinking
'Twas the night before
That night froze over
For there is no sun for me
I am left standing alone
Above you, I mourn
I, alone
'Twas the night before

I liked this one. Have you done the spoken word....seems this would sound awesome to me in that manner. <3

I don't do spoken word, perhaps some day, but I am not currently able to. However, thank you for the kind words.
