Sorrow's End

you teddybear eyes
tell me stay
and I will
go through the door-
way to a forest
of dreams I believe
the ending was a lie
too many pictures
parked cars-moonlight
drive the aching
from my soul and
forget about tomorrow
clench your fist in mine
it won't stop if we
add our names together
on an elm of age
I am sinking through
the soil-the earth
you planted your seed
I swallow hard
and pray I will never
wake from your embrace
I am smothered
with joy-you bastard
I smell your shirt
and cry for a child
entangle my soul
in your spinning eyes
I am lost inside
are you mine tonight
I can't help but pray
this really means
as much to you as me
I swear-only you
can destroy me, love
we blanket together
under a smiling sun
my headache ceases
and every nerve and fiber
in my body will release
when your lips touch mine
