I wish I'd never been so heartless
I wish I had never been so cruel...

He rose from the burning depths
Hands of purest white clawing free of the earth...

So radiantly beautiful,
Like a lotus flower blooming...

I cannot stand to be without you
I cannot stand to not be holding you in my arms...

Hundreds of miles away
Yet linked invisibly so her voice is always near...

Once before I called someone my lotus
I called them my diamond hiding in the rough...

Sitting here with weeks to go
Sitting here rocking back and forth...

Tears building,
Heart pounding...

This time bomb called my heart
Slowly swelling with emotions kept inside...

He howls at the shimmering silver moon,
He howls not out of rage or ire...

I pushed my hand down into my pocket
And pulled forth a folded scrap of paper...

I wish I loved you
I wish I could say I do...
