Crystal Reality

Saturday morning I woke with thoughts of fear,
My head pounding, reality kicked in so very clear,
Her beauty in the morning untouched, how fair she is,
I wanted to embrace her and love her, do as I please,
But he was around and conversation was all about vanity,
He was slowly killing her, how would I ever keep my sanity.

Reality like so many times before,
She's gonna push me away, make my heart soar,
I'm just a method; I had to play my small part,
I must be strong and realize I'm not part of that lover's heart.

I need to be loved, my soul craves a beautiful heart,
You're starting your journey, it crushed me with a cruel dart,
I knew the day would come again, when you retreat,
I'll be left behind bleeding and shiffering in my defeat.

Communication will stop and I'll start to remove the knifes,
Yet another part will turn to stone, dying emotions in our lives,
Life goes on and I know I must let you go,
For only then will time tell and I ever know.
