Symphony of Broken Waves

I came into your darkness Just to bring you some light. The one I had kept hidden Under my ribs and dreams. You sat by the window, having forgotten how to Fly, Surrounded by cold, malicious Shadows. My lantern was dying out. I was afraid to breathe. Afraid I'd scare away this pain with my icy Hands. But then you raised your Eyes, and an empty soul Responded With long forgotten bells. I wanted to save you, to melt all this Ice, To tear down the cobwebs of death-gray stone Walls. But my heart suddenly slowed its pace. Understanding the sweetness and poison Of voluntary falls. 'Cause I liked your darkness so much That I threw the key over the threshold for Good. I'm staying in this castle on a black cliff, Where only the wind rages above us in the Haze. Just you, Just me. There's no one else Around. We meet our joyless dawn together. Spellbound. Here, heavy curtains hide the moon from our Sight, and spiderwebs laced portraits Like delicate thread. I throw my bitter guilt into the fireplace Bright, and we warm ourselves by Summer's phantom instead. Let them scream outside That it's time to go back, That my mind is consumed by thick layers of Smoke. I don't need your faded Sunlit garden track. I'll remain forever Your pilgrim, your yoke. I wanted to leave, but stepped forward Instead. Right into the abyss of your lifeless white Pupils. This darkness accepted me backwards Instead. Removing the seals from my heaviest Scruples. 'Cause I love this deep void, your Endless night. I've burned every bridge, left the cities behind. I'm staying right here on this ancient high cliff, Where waves break at morning through mist and dark Drift. Just you, just me. There's no one else there. We dance for dead planets. On shattered stone stairs. Take my shadows away. Weave them into your own. Become the sole pulse In my chill to the bone. You don't need salvation From this shared dream. I descended to these depths myself, It would seem. Let the surf crash and roar Against solid ground. It's our symphony Now. It's where we are bound. Waves breaking on Stones. Only waves on the stones. Knock, knock, knock, No one. Only gloom. Only gloom. Only gloom. Only gloom. Forever in it. Staying With You.
