SHADOWS OF THE RAIN

I SLIPPED INTO THE DARKNESS
THERE WERE NO VOICES THERE
BEFORE MY EYES WERE PLUCKED
I SAW YOU WERE NOT THERE
ONLY THE SHADOWS OF THE RAIN
ONLY THE SHADOWS OF MY PAIN

I, WHO KNEW THE MYSTERIES OF FLESH
SPLIT APART WITH FEAR
YOU, WHO IS MY LOVE
DID NOT CALL ME NEAR
TO LISTEN TO THE OCEAN ON YOUR SHORE
TO WEAR YOUR SKIN AGAIN ONCE MORE
