View passing
Tale of ready kept in souls watching earth come to view cherish and hold
Oh pass me in a crypt of sawdust and gold
Deep was the quest of old friend Poe
Sea dreaming in tomb brought in vengeance
Sleep is a pale ride in chair meant for resting
Flee in tribune for angel's statue stand-alone in a cage
Swell of torrent living in marble seeking beauty carved
Height of time rings in towers of watch waiting voices screaming
Light branches across reef of markers dissolute sanctions reasons unknown
Cell marks happy voices feeling song
Hell moves past souls to anger waiting
Drain of acceptance pushes each to hope
Rain-washes faces left cold in seclusion held
Shore weak of sand clay pulling fate forward hard
Poor leading so much more than need and want grieve
Urn holds tests of manner and ghosts upon a dark shadows
Burn so hard upon wish left colder than time itself failing to need
Prow cast lonely on kiss
Bow alone fails to rescue
Grief the burden left on her apron
Leaf crumbles from feet lost in thought
Air stale in whisper so hurt by eyes peeking past
Fair takes a restitute upon a hail of words keeping place
Deep in a walk upon a stranded place want wanders free
Keep all dreamers in a pocket of stardust failing to glow a drop
Be a last watch of growth felt
Gain stops in amber seeking fire
Lent of ash and sack leave willing
Sent a passion drive behind mind and time
Haste to dire beneath rocks grind on biblical
Waste shed to ground burning faster than thought
Met sudden death on a ridge above love keeping heart
Set is taking more than leaving a wit trust on beer stained
Tale of ready kept in souls watching earth come to view cherish and hold
Oh pass me in a crypt of sawdust and gold
She reached for me in an hour of need and I cast my heart at her feet
Each breath I take is from heaven left for someone
Now and forever I leave pieces of words to guide me
Always on the return I let her see it is only me
Hiding in the portals of her mind
